your. note with the orders I try
to fulfil all your orders as fare
as I can but sorry to say my memory
is not to be depened [depended] upon in any
matter I have been quite unwell
ever since Mr Cameron was here
the last two days well as usual
Not yet here been quite sick
but better has a turable [terrible] cough
speaks of returning to his place
I fear not able to work he is
much reduced in flesh I fear he
is a consumtive. Sorry to hear your
own health is so poorly hope you
are now well again. No doubt
you would like to know how we
are getting on with house maters
I try to have things kepe as decent
as possible & save what you have
here but not as you have kept it
the servant, will now do but little
& cant be fourced to do any thing
I am a sorry hand at begging a
negro to work taking all as it comes
will do the best I can for your interest
& comfort
S. Piper
