User-Contributed Transcription all promise to come & see us here, I'll give up going this winter. Perhaps it would be quite as well for me to keep still where I am. as to be jounced about. I want to see Almeda and the children. Charles & Albina & the babies of course will come & make us a visit by & by, and I cannot see any possible reason why Almeda can't come and bring you down, and see us, or she and James come alone. Samuel took one pr of your gloves - the rest were sold by the lump for 2/ a pair at Hatch & Thompson's, payable in goods. Samuel has taken a due bill for that amount, and credited you with the same, (three dollars). A letter from Isaac last night. You probably get letters from him as often as we do. he is to have $5.00 per day for a short time - he wants us all to advise with regard to his staying there. Eliab has said everything necessary & I am "engaged with company" - Please decide soon about coming here & let is know. In haste Lucy.
