My dear Sir,

I enclose you a letter
I received yesterday from Dr. Forster
at his residence near Asheville
N.C. It came too late for yesterdays
mail and I despatch it
to-day that you may have as
early as possible all the information
I have respecting Lundgren.
Can he have gone on to
Short in Tennessee? Dr. Forster
you will see gives us however
no dates. Return me his letter
