          Jackson exhibited some 
 of it at Amer. Acad [American Academy].
 Thinks it is perhaps made 
 up of 2 principles, one 
 much less fusible, which 
 separated may be excellent 
 for candles. As it is it melts
 at too low a temperature. 


 My dear wife will be 
 on the way homeward
 when you get this, I 
 suppose, and I long to see 
 her again. 


 I am very grateful to 
 you, and the dear girls for 
 the kind care you have 
 taken of her. She has 
 enjoyed her visit exceedingly


 In haste Ever Yours 
 A. Gray
