User-Contributed Transcription I did in my life? Well I must be done & send this down by Mr. Martin to go with the other things. I am going to get a little cap for Percie (hats seem to be going by) shall I get one like it for Mayo? How does the poor little fellow feel nowadays? You don't say a word about him. Don't he feel as if his chance is about gone? I want to see the rogue. Eliab found out Sunday that Mary (the girl) had been drawing some brandy, Madeira, & currant wine bottles, which very likely occasioned her cross spells - he sent her off, bag & baggage, without waiting for Monday! They have shut up house, till baby is well enough to go back & they get another girl. - Goodbye Aff - Lute
