Dear Sister

            I have been saveing this sheet and a half of paper a long time to write you a letter

 

Rebecca I never wrote a letter to Mary Goss in my life

 

Tell Henry and Femme I have not forgotton them because I dont / and tell them I dont want them to forget me I am sorry a misunderstanding exists between me and Tishy I dont believe I am to blame.

 

Give my respects to all enquireing friends

 

You must write as often as you can and my Love to Lina and Rachel

 

So no more at present

 

Your Affectionate brother
