User-Contributed Transcription I had the impression that Dr. George Rich was not a good moral man. My old pupil Mary Ann Lambert so genteel and accomplished, has it seems applied for Lizzie's school. Lizzie wrote me quite a little budget or Bangor mews obtained by Mrs. Webster. How is she? Mrs. Thaxter too. What school does Mary Tower teach? and why teaches she at all? Isaac is rather provokingly incomprehensible: Eliab wrote that aunt Ester told him she heard per Ms. Hatch that a friend of hers Miss Putman was engaged to a Mr. Metcalf an engineer; I suppose Samuel has gone over this,- hope he will find time to write me when he comes homes next if he do'nt I will threaten at best to write to him. Mr. Hopkins' church is burned not the seminary he is going to leave.
