Mrs. Chapman a short visit. I presume Cousin Jane will be one of the land admirals to act as Pilot __ Jno. Fuller will leave on the "Diadem" in company with Mr. C. if he can possibly get through his business in time. Elbridge Lawrence is here and making some arrangements to go into business at this place. he has also contracted to have beef packed at Hannibal in this State. Charly informs me, that Mr. L. has made him a proposition to engage in business together, and he has or will accept, so I expect this will be his last trip in the boat. Therefore you will say to Egbert to come around immediaunclear in order to meet us here on return of unclear boat, if he wishes to continue in the business. And provided he has a situation otherwise, or any thing happens that he cannot be here in time to write me stating particulars &c. So that I may know what course to persue relative to filling the clerks berth. You may expect to hear from me as often as opportunity & chances of sending will admit. Charly says he would make a visit to Cinti', if Egbert was here. I suppose "Kate" would be glad if he was here. Please write on receipt of this, and address me at St. Louis. __ My best love to all the family & please accept the same for youself and our little daughter. __ Your Sincere and Affectionate Husband
