I suppose she will not be a pensioner long, if it is the case. We are both well. I hope you & <personName>Rosa</personName> are so too. I am uneasy about <personName>Henry</personName>, & hope he will escape the small pox.
I am dear Pa Yours Affectionately
<personName>Rebecca Muhlenberg</personName>
P.S. I enclose the paper with the No. wanting of our Farmers, that it may be <hi>doubly</hi> impressed on your memory, & that you may have no excuse not to attend to it. - <personName>Hiester</personName> has not learnt yet if the court confirmed those sales. Tell <personName>Rosa</personName> he began a letter to her this morning, but declared he could not find material to finish. There is such a dearth of news. -
