Transcription

Warren May 2 1841 Brother Horace Sir Father received your letter yesterday stating that you wished to come back. And he requested me to answer it. He spoke to Uncle Ben about work. he has hired his help for the summer and it would be very doubtful [wether] you would get any thing to do this summer at that business. however you can act your own pleasure about the matter. you know best. I was astonished at hearing that Thomas has quit that place. for my [?] has been since he left that health and prosperity would attend him. I would be very glad to have him write. answer this soon if you dont come before it. and I remain yours with respect Charles Stevens [?] The folks are all well. the Boy is growing finely. Susan has got a pair of twins children a Boy and a girl. she is smart
