My Dear Friend

I should have answered yours
of the 1st August last week.

First of all, I hope you don't mean
to give us the slip and not come
on to the meeting next week!
We shall be much disappointed if
you do not, and you ought on
many accounts to be presemt.

Jane (who will be home to-morrow)
still expects Mrs. T. & Eliza.

I heard from Harvey at Halifax
who says he shall not be able
to get round to Boston in time
to be with us. He goes from Halifax
to New York.

I wish you would draw up characters
of the Mexican [added: Cleomellas] [crossed out: Clomellas] &
I will place them where they shall
be sure to be taken up in Pl. Lindh.
or first paper, or make a
little paper yourself in Silliman
or elsewhere.
