Albany, Tuesday
My dear Father,
I am
very glad to hear of
your projected trip. I
am sure you must
need at least that
much relaxation, and
so favorable a time
to take it, may not
soon occur again.
I hope that the

decision of Congress, whatever
it is to be, will be
arrived at early enough
to give you the time you
will want.
Any time when you
want me at Auburn,
I will either go up with
you, or meet you there.
Anna
Birth: 1834-03-29 Death: 1919-05-02
and I will
gladly avail ourselves
of your very kind offer
to us, next year, or
some future time, when
matters are cleared up

a little here.
Augustus
Birth: 1826-10-01 Death: 1876-09-11
has gone to
Auburn, where he will
hear of your proposed
excursion from Mother
Birth: 1805-09-24 Death: 1865-06-21
.
Affectionately your son
Frederick
