Whitestown. Wed. P.M. March 6. 1850

Dear Jane: I little dreamed when we received your letter of Feb. 6 that it would be so long before I should write you again. Perhaps the few words I wrote in Josiah's letter reconciled we to so long a silence. It may be I shall not be able to write much more now. I find my time very much occupied. The babe is not a cross child. we call him a pleasant child yet he is active, and needs a good deal of attention. He has outgrown one pair of socks, worn out another, and is now kicking away at a third pair. He has kicked a hole in one of his new white petticoats, has worn out his night shirt and pretty well on his dresses, so you see I shall have to go to make him some new clothes. That kids you sent we have him with interest - I don't know but he would know his aunt Jane now if he should see her. Mr. B's school goes on well. he has but a few students, as some left a the time that it was suspended for a fortnight term closes in two weeks. Eld. Paddock and his lady took tea with us on the day of Tem. Convention. They have visited their daughters Mrs. Bradford this winter. Her husband is still Pastor of the church at Gilbertville. Charles Talbott (Doct. Talbott) is now one of the regular physicians in this place. He has bought out Doct. Thomas. You recollect he had a fine situation. I called on Mrs. Talbott a short time since. She has a very pleasant house every thing in first rat order. I desire to visit there as soon as I can take the baby out. Mrs. Heffron called here last week, and Mr. and Mrs. Chapman, Mrs. H's health is very much improved. Mr. Heffron is still traveling. He has completed his sower bath business, and is now selling patent for a shingle machine.

    You seemed to be low spirited in your last letter.  What is the matter - any thing more than usual?  We heard a short time since by ECor Chaney
