How d'ye do?—I have quite a hankering to hear from, and see Jamaica, and the Jamaicaites.—A pressure of business, only, has preevented my coming out among the "friends of yore," and the familiar places which your village contains.—I was an hour in your village the other day, but did not have time to come up and see you,—I think of coming up in the course of the winter holidays.
Farewell,—and dont forget writing to me, through the P.O.—
May your kind angel hover in the invisible air, and lose sight of your blessed presence never
