[Left page is written sideways]
I am sorry to hear that Uncle Timothy is
so unwell this Summer, but hope he is better
ere now. Give my love to him and the others
of his family. I was in hopes to be at home
this week, but must give it up, but still
hope it is for the best. Expected to hear
from there yesterday but did not succeed.
Ann writes that she is well, and gets along
nicely, in her studies. I am glad it is so,
as I feared she would not be able to study
this [summer?], with her sore eys.

Please write soon & direct as before; Give my
love to all
The loving son
W.B.Stevens

To R. [B. Stevens?]

Dear Mother:

Thy good letter of
the twenty fifth [last?] would
have been answered sooner, but
for thy suggestions to the con=
trary. It was very acceptable;
so was the news of thy really
having gone, as thee proposed.
Does thee know I came near
coming to the N.Y.Y.M. , I
had some thoughts of calling
up there, while you were in
solemn session, but was not
quite well enough to endure
the fatigue. I am gaining
well now, and enjoying my=
self nicely; I am now just
about as strong as before I had
the Shakes, three weeks ago.
