if nothing else. So Melissa is surely
Married, and Ellen [underline]is to be[/underline]. What are

Thomas & Levi, too. Where is George Davis?
Why is not he on the list with the rest?
I want thee to have thy Photograph taken,
the size of the one I sent home last Winter
unless thee can have the one of thee and
