User-Contributed Transcription you will all understand that it is not in me to trim my thoughts in a manner of expressing them, you will get them just as they are dug up without polish and I hope hope without alloy, This I suppose you already understood and are willing to make all allowances for my interjectory manner, I cannot connect and smooth up anything. Enclosed you will find some of morning's waste of time perhaps to all but myself. I rec a few days since a Boston Advertiser containing an abstract of an address by GG Felton, I enjoyed it much and send a few extracts from it. I have not heard from Father or Theodore since I wrote last, all are well here. My health is very good. am suffering some want of exercise which I will hunt up when Father gets back. If I should have to go to Ohio for it, I want to see Percie.With a great deal of love yoursSamuelI'd like to see some of Anna's marks
