My dear precious mother,

Again
we have been disappointed
in not hearing from thee -
thot we should surely get
a letter last night. Hope
thee is not sick. The 30th
I sent thee a letter to N.Y.
& the 4th [inst?] one to Kingston.
Dear Willie's letter speaks fpr
itself - how I do wish he
could come home. Got
one from Henry too last night:
he is well - Saw Thomas
3d. day night - they are
all well and get along
nicely - says he hopes thee
wont worry - but have a
nice time. Uncle [G.?] is a
little better if any thing
