Farmington July 24. 1857 Dear Sir, I rec'd. a letter from your Father dated Apl 20 - last, at Milo, in which he informed me that he should leave in two days & stop at your house in Hampden two weeks, I think. I rec'd. the letter in about 3 days after writen - I immediately wrote him at your place. Saying to him that if he would let me know about the day he & family would be in Boston I would meet him there after waiting about 3 weeks I went to the City having business there about that time, but could hear nothing from him neither by [Cal. March?] nor from any other source & strange to say have not to this time. I have been delaying writing you till now expecting a letter from you or your Father every Mail, I shall expect to hear from you soon with all the particulars of your folks moving west. are you going? Our family are all in pretty good health, except I have been for a few days troubled with a lame back. suppose it to be rheumatism. am not able to do much, which makes it bad at this busy time of haying, Hay is abundant. & crops of every kind look well. indian corn is short but think we shall have a prety good crop, Shant we see you to New Hampshire this season? If you should conclude to go west I hope you will not forget & come & see us before you leave, I very much regret I could not have had the opportunity of seeing your Father & family, but if they are gone, probably I shall never see them again, Your friend & kinsman J.W.
