Sir Mariam
I have got home
I arived th 5 and found my friends all
well but I feel as lonesome as can be
for my part I had rather be in Lowell and
be rung up every morning than to be here
at home I have not seen any one since I have
got home, I shall be very glad when I get in
the mill again. I am going to ride
last of this month and stop after the fourth of
July. I think I shall go the distant of forty miles
I had first rate time coming home I should
like to travel all the time if I could.
I have no news to write except a young
man by the name of James Marden hung
himself at Mr. Lanskirters to Belfast, this took
place last week. Mariam that is
a false report about me being married it is
no such a thing so you may rest assured
about that. I have inquired in to the
affarse and found out the perticulers.
I wish you would come home so I could
see you. I hope you will come. I and
make me a visit and talk over the
past times that we spent in Lowell.
