          The Oregon Expedition I learn from Davis 
 who has just returned from Washington, is 
 all gone to the dogs, owing to the mismanagement 
 and stupidity of Bancroft, so Mr. Halsted
 need no trouble himself. 


 I should have been glad to have seen 
 Bailey.


 Love to all. I intended to enclose a 
 line to Mrs. T. [Torrey], but it is too late. Say 
 I will write specially very soon, but hope 
 meanwhile to hear from her. 


 Faithfully & Very truly Yours 
 A. Gray
