          If you can bring your material for these
 4 specs. [species] to town, I would devote a morning
 in comparing them, with what I possess. Not that
 you want help, by any means, but I should like
 for my own sake, to go over them, with you,
 & see if they cannot be made out satisfactorily.


 Write one word when I may expect you, (if
 at all) & I will remain at home-- 36 Greenwich.


 I wrote to a friend in Congress who sent me
 a copy of Fremont's Report [Report of the exploring expedition to the Rocky Mountains in the year 1842..., by John Charles Frémont], which I think a
 good enough book to deserve binding. Please
 therefore look me out an Autograph Letter
 of the Captain to bind up with it.


 I am, My dear friend,
 With very sincere regard,
 Yrs. [yours] Truly,


 Jno [John] Carey
