I do not think thee is
right in thinking my
mind is soured against
Friends, though I [underline]do[/underline] think
they acted unwisely and
inadvisedly in my case
as well as, in the case of
Macomber & Dakin.

I did not received thy
letter to Richmond only
this one, of Mar 1.th [?] it.
If I am ever there again
write [underline]more[/underline] frequently, as
they are just as likely
to go through, and only
one in three or four are
supposed to get there at
any rate, I did not get
Henry's, either. Three of
Ann's and one from Mary
were all I received by
mail, I believe.
