A letter from Mallery since he arrived at West Point. Poor fellow the place is forlorn enough, but he has had a particularly forlorn journey in getting there and arrives at the worst possible season. You may comfort yourself in regard to one thing tho- there is no danger of his running about much. Wish you would conclude to come on with the girls.
I think you ought, and if there is not money enough to pay for a long visit, then make a shorter one. I approve of their staying at the hotel with any married lady friend but do not approve of the girls doing so at a hotel without, unless some brother is with them. Either Butler, Floyd or I should be with them. But I hope that you will come on. I have been spending the evening with Mrs. Stoddard at the Mozart ? house, and as it is now long past midnight I will conclude. Dearest Mother please forget the contents of my last letter and believe that I amheartily sorry for having written it. Give love and good wishes to all. As ever yours ? son
Henry Lord King
