          Dr Gray expects merely to pass through N.Y. tomorrow. I shall
 try to meet him at the boat as otherwise I cannot see him, having
 to lecture at 9.


 Mr. Trecul when he started meant only to go to Pa. It seems he
 changed his mind. He wrote me he would be back the same week.


 I have as yet written nothing on the Genera. It was on my
 order of exercises for this morning but Mrs T's coming has led
 me to put aside my plans. I am really discouraged to see how
 little I do, and yet I dare not press myself as my health now is. I hope
 I shall soon be ready for work - say in a week or two. I have not
 seen the notice of the Genera in Silliman nor the Review of
 the Manual in the N.American. When must an article
 be finished to be in season for the next?


 Mrs Torrey is writing in the other room & I send this (I
 think) with hers. I send the receipt for the pews


 I wish I had thought before to borrow Burnetts Outlines
 again. After all there is a great deal that is useful there.


 Mrs Torrey has finished & I must close


 Yours affectionately


 I. F. Holton


 Trecul has just called - goes to-morrow to Boston thence to
 Albany Detroit etc. to St L. He does not know what to do with
 your note to Schoolcraft. I told him I could return it
 to you _ I send the accompanying note _ the letter itself is too
 heavy.
