Your letter is just to hand to day without a word on the subject of your health Hoping you may employ to profit your time -to.) Jane Roberts with us but a day or two [since] and all are well. Mr Norris has abandoned his school & is to be resumed shortly under the auspices of a Mr Harris. No news of importance ) Write me in answer to this and when I have more leisure will write you more fully and satisfactorily.) Yours Affectionately" Matthew Gage
