well as usual and have got one
of the old fashion snow storms such
as we used to have when i was young

remain a while on prospect park
but i think we have got enoughf
to eat to stand through it if it
dont last too long thank god and
good sons) poor mrs grayson i
felt real sad to hear of her death poor woman
she must have been tortured to death probably a happy exchange)

from mr heyde the principle part
and the most interesting was about
a rabbit that had made up his
winter quarters in his woodhouse
he spoke of your sending han some
gloves and 5 do and walt was a good
fellow i suppose you will take it as
a great compliment) and han was
very ill natured and he had his place
nearly paid for but he sighed for
other lands so much for mr heyde
