& asked after you, and were glad to hear
you were at school at Andover &
doing so well. When you have learned
a good deal more, I intend to
carry you to Woodstock to spend some

he give Mr. Brown two dollars or any
amount? Write me in your next.
[I'll] send you some quills & paper. You
must not waste either but use them to
good purpose.
I enclose you the letter I
formerly sent you as it contains such advice
as I wish you to read once a week & that you
may keep it with all the other letters you may receive.
Fold them neatly & write on the back of them
as you find I have written on the enclosed & tie them together
& keep them in your trunk. Conclude your letters in
this way. "I am your affectionate & obedient son
