Henry must excuse Brownson for not writing for the two months since Henry left him because of the gout in his hand and the work connected with the April number. Brownson was inexpressibly shocked and grieved at the death of Elise Van Dyke ?, so bright, so loving, and so young. He offers his condolence to Mr. Miran and to her and to Fifine as well as to him. Sarah Brownson Tenney lives in the judge's William J. Tenney old house at 85 Elizabeth Avenue. She appears to be very contented and happy. Brownson remains where he was when Henry was here. Dolly is his housekeeper and cook. He saw while here a pious girl from Ireland who serves Brownson as secretary, chamber-maid, nurse and seamstress. There is peace and quiet in the family for they are very obliging and he is master. The Review goes so so, pleases some and gives offense to others, especially to Baltimoreans with whom he has always quarreled. Brownson is quite well and hopes Henry is and that his business did not suffer during his absence. He is to be remembered to Fifine, the children and to Henry's brothers-in-law. :: III-3-a A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
