My dear Clara
I hope you will
not be troubled by
Mr Mc Clallen’s
Birth: 1791-09-07 Death: 1860-11-16
embarrass-ments more than you
can avoid – It was
the anticipation of
this state of affairs
that made me decide
to leave our house
unoccupied this Winter.
Now if Mc Clallen can
either sell or rent
his house will it
not be best for you
to move into the
old home, where we
can all board with
you when we are in
Auburn – Henry

wish you to go
there as well as
myself – Every
thing is so uncertain
about our movements
that I do not pretend
to look forward a
year, I could make
no calculation even
had I health to be
useful any where –
as it is I feel that
I am only a sojourner
for a season – but
always affectionately
your
Frances –
I enclose a check
for $25 –
For Clara
Mrs Clarinda McClallen
Auburn.
