Dear Mother I sent a letter to Lucy telling all the news about myself a day or two since directed it to Eliah that he might send it to her for I don't know whether or not she is still at Milo, now if she is there as I think most probable, then is no need of my writing again so soon except for this reason. I forgot to tell her where to send the bundle she interwove to, by the Furbers. It is to be directed to me, to the 'care of Stephen Kinsey Esq. Westfield to be left out A. Burnsey's leather store Buffalo, opposite the mansion House he will see the store opposite: from there it will reach me without trouble or expense. I have just written to E. Doe to purchase a dress and mantilla for me in Portland to send by the Furbers, or bring herself if she comes with them. -goods are considerably higher here, from cost of transportation - higher than at Boucine. I enclosed money to Elizabeth requesting Mrs. Shepherd if she is not in Portland to send the money and directions to Lucy to the care of eLiah; in case the money should be sent to Lucy I wish, if she finds it convenient and judges best, that she would get Mrs. Webster to make the purchases to send by Mr Furber: or if not, write me word and Eliah can take charge of it.

• Tell Charlie not to forget Aunt Anne and she will come to see him sometimes.
