My dearest John,
I received yours on the 19 inst. and was glad to hear from
you but was sorry to hear that you was not so well, but I trust see this that
you are better. I was indeed sorry to
hear of Price and you having words together.
I suppose he is tired of being yonder, but I think the best way is to
take him quietly since he is so disposed, and try and persuade him to stay and
for his intended to come over, for I feel quite disappointed for I thought
these would of been such good company of us, so try and persuade him if you
think proper.
My dearest Johny, one must excuse me writing much this time
for it is Friday and there a great many strangers in town. There are no then 15 here to tea today beside
our own family. They are coming one over the other. Miss Beardon and Martha Hall are just gone
from here. They where here to tea. So my dear John will excuse me writing much
this time. I will write a longer one
next time. Your sister M. Ellen has
brought a note for you. She says they
are all middling, so that is not very well.
Oh! I should so like if you would take in your head to come
over with Price if he is determined to come, for I should feel more contented
then to go with them from Bagillt, but I don’t think they are going this spring
until next. I have got everything ready
to pack if my box had come.
My dearest John I must tell you that I have not been so well
lately and I am in very low spirits. I
think a great deal of my mother and father more lately and I cannot help it
somehow.
I must conclude for the present, hoping to hear from you
soon. I remain your ever affectionate
and Lizzy until death.
