New Hampton, Aug. 19 1857 Our Dear Children No letter from home today (Wed.) hope to get one tomorrow. Your mother is better of her cold. We have been to visit Mrs Bachelor, the wife of a Missionary of that name today, and have seen many curiosities from India. Since we wrote last, we have altered out plan a little, and intend now to start home on Friday morning, and go through Vermont and stay over the Sabbath with Rev Griffith Jones, Fairhaven, Vt. It will be about 250 miles travel to Fairhaven. We were glad to hear that Mr. Thomas had promised to be in Steuben? next Sabbath. Please give my respects to him and thank him for coming. We thought it a good opportunity to visit the Welsh Settlement in Vermont, and that it was a pity to come home without going there, as we are already in New England. We hope to reach home on Monday, if it please Him who ruleth over all things. With love to you all and cousins. We unclear your unclear father and mother Robert & Elizabeth Everett.
