Mrs. Brownson has been trying to find time to acknowledge Henry's letter of the 7th and also to tell him how much obliged she is to him and Fifine for all their kindness and attention to Brownson. He has told her a great deal about the younger Brownsons, and she rejoices very much at their happiness and prosperity. Henry's father told her an anecdote of two women who came to Henry's office. One Henry charged nothing and the other only a small fee. She hopes Henry will strew his path through life with many such good deeds. Henry's father upon his return suffered from diarrhea for about ten days. He is better now and works very busily. Yesterday he received Fifine's letter and was delighted with it. Last Sunday the cornerstone for a new Church was laid at the crossroads and Brownson was invited. Day before yesterday two Rev. Mothers from Brooklyn spent the day with the Brownsons. They were sisters of St. Joseph and one is the head of the Orphan Asylum and has 260 boys under her charge. Dr. and James Hewit were here yesterday. Henry's father's health continues very much as it was when at Henry's. He will write Fifine soon. She hopes yet to see her children's children. The Brownsons intend to illuminate their house tomorrow night. At 3rd Street N. York next Sunday there will be processions, music and firing of cannon. :: III-3-a A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
