Our kind regards to Mrs Torrey please inform her that
we have an addition to our family in the person of a third
daughter The little stranger made her appearance in the
breathing world two weeks ago on Sunday Mrs Henry is quite
[smart?] and were it not that to day is wet and unplesant she
would come down to dinner. We will make arrangments
relative to the division of apparatus and the purchase
of additional articles when you come on

As Ever Yours, [etc.?]
