User-Contributed Transcription Nettie DunbartonJuly 28, 1860Dunbarton New HampshireSaturday, July 28, 1860My very dear Isaac -I have written two letters to you, and received from you the same number. And I believe I cannot let this mail go today without writing again. O I cannot tell how very strange is seems to be away from you and our little ones. My plan has been to stay here two weeks after George came. That would be just two weeks more - as George came last night, and then spend a week or ten days among the Westboro friends and then home as fast as possible. They try to persuade me to remain another week here but I do not really think I shall, hardly see how I can possibly unless it be to accommodate George, and I hardly think it will be needful on that account. I went down to Goffstown to meet George yesterday
