Sunday
My dear Sister,
Thomas came yesterday and brought
Dr. Mott and your letter – You ought to have
received mine (in which I enclosed $5) S Friday
Morning it was sent to the office in the
evening early – I presume it has reached you
if not please write – Just after it was
sealed Thursday McClallen came in and
announced that he has rented his house to
a man who was to take posession immediately
and Clara must go over and send home her things
which had been carried there –They had both
regretted that the house was taken after walking
over there a few times it was so far from the
village and Clara had told him a few days
before to rent it if he could – Clara was a little
vexed that she had had all the trouble of cleaning

it but upon the whole is pleased that it is disposed of
McClallen e intends getting another if possible
near his shop I hope it will be nearer us –
I do not think however that they will leave
before Fall – I shall try to persuade Clara to go
with me when I go to Albany – she wishes to visit
Pittstown once more – Henry writes that his
father is better – he thought of coming home last
week but does not come – It has been so warm
to day that Clara and I have not been to Church –
I have but a few pages more to read in Hammond
will send it – the collar I return without having
put it on I was sorry after I recollected that you
said Fan liked to wear it that I took it at all
she is welcome to have it – hers was left in the
bed room — I enclose Greeleys poems — Will you
come about the 4th –? Clara sends love your own
Sister –
