User-Contributed Transcription We expect to send a little bees wax for which Albina wants to get threadneedles &c (per money you see) & Almeda wants very much we should sendsome to Mr. Theodore Thaxter who requested her to get me to send himsome - he will give two thirds a pound she says he will be very much disappointed if it is not sent because he is troubled to get that which is good - if youshould go to Boston you could convey it to him A says he & wife now almostangry that you didn't call there when you were last in Boston - youhad better call there and at Mr. Chases whenever you go Boston.But do as you think best about sending it - Do get time to write to mesometime and tell Eliab to quick.[Bottom of page, upside down] Isaac says he don't care about the bosoms in his shirts, so if yours suits you I'll put them in your other pair; or I'll make shirters if you had rather; though I should think you'd rather have them alike. Tell me all about it. Why don't you ever write to me? Good bye. In haste, Affectionately, Lucy. Ann will hand you money to bind Bibble with.
