Aunt Julianna told me yesterday,

have not yet arrived, and I am
affraid they will not be in time,
for Richard has to take Tom with
the Trunk early in the morning.
and unless she got them yesterday,
she will have no chance. I went
out in the rain yesterday and
got every thing I have sent, for
we had but the one days notice,
it has been a dismal day this,
Raining, Hailing, and Freezeing.
I was affraid to go out to Meeting.

born. they say it is the greatest
year that ever was known for them.

was in her chamber with Twins.
Aunt Mary received a letter from Han yesterday, she had received her Carpet Bag, which I am very glad of. -- If Doctor John, goes to Hertford, and stays two or three weeks, I think Mary, had better return with him as far as Baltimore, it is very likely Hannah Maule, would be comeing home about that time, and I donot know of any other opportunity there will be this winter. if Han, should not be there, some one would go down for her. but Mary would have to write and tell us all about her prospects. poor Ann Tatnale, was burried the seventh day 5<sup>th</sup> Dallum, in the Street yesterday,

before I came home, Julianna thinks
Emma's indisposition was in part
occasioned by the shock, she was
very much unnerved with it.

again, and she is a great deal
better. she walked down to school
yesterday. Sue Gibbons's Father
is dead, he was preparing to
come on to see them when he
died (I beleive) suddenly.
I did not tell you of the death of poor Anna Nicholson. she was poorly, and Doctor Levick ordered her Quinine, the Drugist at the corner of twelveth and Chestnut made a mistake, and sent Opium. she took enough to kill ten men, they used pumps, and every thing that could be thought of, but they never could rouse before I came home, Julianna thinks
