business of mine. I have learnt by Jno. Fuller Jr. since I arrived here, that he was somewhat imprudent in several respects. Since he left Cincinnati on our last trip he has been very steady and attentive to business. I shall leave him in charge of the "Goddess" when I leave her, thinking he will do as well for me as any one, besides have the effect to stimulate him to a rank of notice and respect.
Dutee J. has not made his appearance yet. I hope he will remain in Iowa until the boat makes another trip as I gave him privilege so to do, if he should wish.
I have seen Jno. Fuller since we arrived he is well, & expects to ship some Tobacco by us. I feel considerably animated while writing this epistle, thinking I will soon see my affectionate wife, and loving little daughter.
My best respects to all the family, and please accept the love and best wishes of your affectionate and loving Husband.
