Auburn September 6, 1849.
My Dear Uncle,
Your letter of the 3rd instant was received last night
Last evening I thoroughly searched all the papers in the Home office
and could find none relating to the Bond & Mortgage you describe.
This morning all the papers and documents in Mr Blatchford's
office have been thoroughly examined, but I regret to say that
the examination has proved fruitless, save the enclosed letter.
There are no papers here relating to Grandfathers
those connected with Misses Nubush
the Institute. I have written to the county clerk of Jefferson
County requesting him to inform me, what he recollects con-
cerning the Bond and Mortgage, and have also asked Mr
Blatchford if he knows where they are. Their respective answers
shall be immediately transmitted to you. I sincerely hope
that the "obedient servant" in the subscription to your letter is
not to be a perpetual substitute for the endearing and to
me parental appellation of "Uncle". I have attended to
Auntys
if I can be of assistance to you
As ever affectionately
Clarence A. Seward (over)
William H. Seward

May they not be in the Tin Trunk? The key can be sent
by mail if you wish me to look.
