Page 1st Bangor May 2d 1839 Dear Mother, Brother, Sister, When I got home from school to day, I perceived a pr. of shoes being by the door which looked as if they would fit me pretty well, so the girl told me that a man left them for me, a little while before. Well after supper, Charles came in, he gave me a rule [?] good letter! I went down town with him. I did not hardly have time to speak to him was not with him half an hour hardly. Ergo, I now sit down to answer your letters, as I had nothing written when C. was here, and did not have time to tell him 1/2 as Joe said.
