Dear Sister,

Your joy must be almost so great as the sufferings that you will undoubtedly so pevianed on seeing Ausem Hubbles appear before you at a time when I suppose you will imagine him far away digging the precious rig.

I saw him last evening when he first informed me of his intention of returning. And as I thought that it would be a good opportunity of sending my letters safe as you would get them ---- I have intrustied them them to him. With an addition of these few lines to the aheady big Bugget. Aus has been and is now sick and as he has not mended any for the last two on this weeks. At the advice of all his friends has came to this conclusion 15 go home. But I am not now going to write you another long letter, you must see Aus and he can answer every question. Who thought that you would so soon see a man fresh from the soly region. Who has seen your Brother so that he can answer all questions that you many have put about him. Ever since my arrival and even to the present moment I have enjoyed as perfect health as even I did in my life. And now because Aus has -- sick I don't want you to worry and think that I am on will he sick until you know for certain that I am in. I have got all my things aboard the S. Chirne ( a personnel ship) ready to go ---- this river Monday with Moses and Cam. I have brought provisions everyday to last us all winter. And in every --- respect am as well provided for as I can he but the boat is ready to go ashore and I must finish and head in my letters and mum Dem Sishi - Mattew and all the rest goes Bye Henny
