A letter from Robert, Stephenson, Liverpool, dated 18th June 1824 and addressed to his stepmother, Mrs George Stephenson, Forth Street, Newcastle Tyne. This letter is in response to one written to him by both his stepmother and his father. He advises his father to focus on his work with the 'Liverpool Railroad' and hopes he will find some one to take charge of 'the Factory'. Some of the letter has been damaged making two of the paragraphs illegible.
