Aberdeen Harbour Board: Letter from Captain T. Shepherd, Straloch Letter to Alexander Reid: "Dear Sir, on my return home, I found you had only paid me a quarter of year's interest on one of Mrs. Shand's bills instead of half a years- I enclose the bill, which will at omce show the mistake- please to pay the balance into the Town & County Bank, to the credit of Mrs. Christina Shand, and return the bill in course, and the bank receipt to me. Yours faithfully, Thomas Shepherd." 23rd December 1842
