not written whether you have received your shirts at last or not. Have you bough a new coat? If not I think you need one by this time. I have had some accessions to my school, it is quite flourishing now. I must break off in order to have this go with J's letter so good bye write soon and particularly, every thing about the friends there is exceedingly interesting to me. Give much love from me to all Affly Ann.
