My Dear Doct [Doctor] Torrey

No I had not forgotten that
I was to be honoured with a visit fromm the
Misses Torrey as well as your good self. not
a call!

You must alter your arrangements, this
plan you suggest would only leave you time to dine
with me on Monday: there are beds in my house 
for you all.

Why not start Friday night by either Stonington Line
which reaches here 4 A.M. in this case you must
take  a carriage at Depot and come to my house
17 Brown St. or the more comfortable way would 
be the Neptune Line of [Propellers?] which arrive
at 6 1/2 A.M. in this case my carriage would
be at the wharf for you (very comfortable hire
but not elegant) or later the mid day train
getting here at about seven o'clock P.M.in this 
case my carriage would be atthe depot.

Either of these cases would leave you Saturday
for Carices and other matters. Sunday to go to
