Tuesday morning - No - Wednesday my Father tells
me it is.
It was not till just now that I took notice of that passage
in your last where you tell me you shall not come up
till you hear from me. The word "not' was broken off

of your being to come to town so soon I thought nothing
of sending to you any of your things — Indeed part of
that passage was almost illegible, and part covered by

am in doubt whether in that case extraction is proper
or would indeed effect a cure. It is the last tooth in my left
