My dear friend
You must know
what a consolatoin
it was to me to read
your dear letters,
and learn you
were not ill as I
feared, as that
my letters did not
reach you, owing
to the great press

[Left side}

of business, you have
now existing upon
your already heavy
ladened shoulders.

But it is best you
should have such
absorbing [occupation ?].
Such a grand
work, such su-
perb material
to work with I
envy you. Think
of my hearts work,
my family, Grants family
