          We had Prof [Professor] Woolsey of Yale here last week, 
 the best Grecian in the Country. Olmstead 
 & Stanley were here, but nobody saw them. Prof. [Professor]
 Woolsey stayed several days.


 I have just received a pleasant little letter 
 from Boott.


 I am sorry for Henderson. The College should 
 pension him off! 


 I must close abruptly, else I shall lose 
 to-day's mail. Love to Herby and all 
 the rest. I hope to write to some of the family
 very soon. Dont forget full drawings of
 Obolaria!


 In haste, Yours affectionately 
 A. [Asa] Gray
