            I’m not going to write
any thing bar a request
            Dady & Mamy Hogom (as we
used to to to [sic] call them when in
Boston) I am told are coming
down to morrow for the purpose of
seeing their children ([ha: ha?] if they’d

Agent to send me a lot of bills
or receipts For the Liberator, I have
sent for them before but did’nt [sic] get

them – Please send them immediately
and Oblige Yours
                        In a terrible Haste
because the Cars ar [sic] soon off J B SanderSon

I wonder why I did’nt [sic] get a Liberator
last week perhaps some of my very good
friends wished to save me trouble by
taking it out of the Office for me
I am “exceedingly Oblige to them”
