I suggested to Egbert to leave Wormwood Tea made and use, as a substitute for stronger drink. I hope he may do something for a reform, and that speedily -- I will write you again soon from some point below.
How much I think of you and our darling babes, I had scarcely time to kiss them yesterday when I left, I was in such a hurry. -- I can imagine how innocent they were, and how little they knew my feelings when I parted with them -- But this is for a time
My best respects to Mother + Cousin and the balance of the family, with my sincere love to you + our darling babes --
From Your Affectionate Husband
