Will my Friend Isaac Post please to see to the safe- ty of a parcel which I sent to your P. O. , I think about the 23rd inst., directed to Sallie Holley, who I learn was out on a lectur- ing tour, and would not get it. I wish it kept for her at her return. I often think of the two pleasant visits I have made at your house, and should be glad of a continued acquaintance with you, but am too feeble to hope for much more travelling (as you will see by my writing) and too reasonable to hope to see you here. My dear Sister Reilly remains very feeble, and her tour to Rochester is very uncertain. There are many things in her way and her age renders her recovery doubtful. I have occasionally a long, free, and affectionate letter from my beloved P.K., and tho’ there is great dissimilarity between us in some respects, I rejoice that there is no lack of confidence. in each other’s integrity. My love to Amy and your daughter Hallowell whom I met with at your house. Thine respectfully Ann King.
