My dear husband
Your several letters and enclosures are receiv’d, one covering 50 dolls. Which I shall appropriate as directed. I wrote you last mail advising you of the receipt of yours for that mail. The salt, cotton, Turpentine, linen, and canary seed have not yet come to hand. All the other articles, namely pork, herring & flour have come to hand.
I have very lately rien,1 having been confined yesterday (Monday) with a severe cholic. I am better now, but am afraid this will not be in time for the mail.
I shall send for Henrietta on Saturday. Elizabeth is well.
Your affte. wife
E.U.T.

2d Aug.
This letter was too late sure enough.
