land. I was in hopes to have got rid of future anxiety-relative to our mill matters & to have got that land in shape that we could use it another year for we need it now if ever. David does well as a business man when all is sunshine but when storms come he cannot brave them at all. Adversity crushes & unfits him for business. He keeps a girl still & Lizzy Howe is there. I should think Mary & Lizzy ought to be able to do the work for themselves & David. He also keeps a man & he has two horses only to take care of. He says he has nothing to live on & he has not but I think you & I should get along more economically under similar circumstances. I do not believe he & Leaming can run the mill this Autumn even if the suit is put over & the mortgages are not foreclosed till Autumn. Don't say a word about what I have said about David to any one. I do not enjoy being here
