Dear E_
They have just brought / up from Troy your letter of Friday / last, & I am glad to find you / are getting on so well with health / eyes & muslin curtains_
You seem to think a / great deal of 20 below above zero_ / but you will be surprized when / you get my last which talks / of 20 or 30 below_ Since then / it has rained hailed, cleared / off & is now Snowing fiercely / from the North East_ /
I expect to get through here / this morning & go to Whitehall / tonight_ I not only have no / news, but although I knew there / arrived a steamer last Friday, I / have not yet been able to see / a paper_ I am well & hard / at work_ Love to all-
Thine G.L.S
