My Dear Sister
Your kind letter of
condolence and sympathy has been
often read and as often brought con-
solation to my wounded heart––
From my kind Brother
Birth: 1801-05-16 Death: 1872-10-10
whose
laborious life deprives his friends
of often and of terse tokens of his
kindness I also received a letter
which I have not answered-
I beg that neither he or you
will feel from it that I do not
appreciate his sympathy or counsel
I trust I do both
With the assurance of my con-
tinued thanks and gratitude, ac-
cept the of my departed
wife
Birth: 1812-09-30 Death: 1848-10-18

Yours Affectionately
GW Seward
