Dearest Abby,

                    Thank you for your prompt

return of letters & documents. it makes so much relief from anxiety off --- I have written Charles for the same as I did you & Chandler& sent him an dollar for expense, & told him to have one of his boys to for some competent person to come to his house & make the thing easy as possible --

  I thought perhaps if I didn't he might feel

that he had been left out & worry about it. I also thought if there should be any crooked[sic] places to get over, It was well enough to be prepared to meet them legally.

 Dea [Dto move then.?] Barber has written to have Chandler

come up by Sam[uel?] 's request -- he may come but then with daughter. I rec'd from Judge Baron the 20th a letter of 14 page covering nearly every point in the matter & very plain information

Mr. Osgood has brought house & some garden in Chicopee, Mass

    [written side ways on top of page]

to move their [sic] before 1st sun[day?] this in the spring [quarter - illegible] Republican will add you mustnt [sic] have any fears as to my using or taking any im- proper liberties with your Document -- & it will be just the same as though I am your own hands -- as you can kill it whenever it has the work necessary. Mary has a short vaca tion -- one week out & is coming home--
