User-Contributed Transcription for ten days. Fletcher has paid no money nor hauled anything. Eliab says he has not seen him for some time. If your health is so that you could come and stop here ten days or more without any injury, perhaps it would be well for you to come, but I think your health of much more importance than any business of ours at present. Porter was up river when I came from Milo. Hear nothing from Wing or Wingate. Good Night S.W. FurberPa Furber is just going to Milo. Has been here but a few moments. If you come down Joseph, be careful of yourself. Lay down and rest at the tavern. In haste Lucy.[upside down] S.W. Furber May 17, 1849
