Kelly is very glad to hear Henry is well to do, that Henry occupies a high position in the city where he resides, and is still more pleased to hear of the fine family Henry is getting to perpetuate the name and, he hopes, the brains of Henry and his honored father. Kelly has much to be thankful to God for. From an humble start he now occupies a high position, he thinks so at least. He married a Protestant girl seven years ago last month—Tim Sherman's niece—and now she is a devoted Catholic. They have three beautiful children and a fourth coming. Like the Brownsons, the Kellys do not follow the American fashion of being contented with one or two, but obey the orders of the Church. Kelly has one boy whom he intends to give to the service of the Church, and he hopes the coming one may be a boy that he may go there also. Indeed if he had a dozen he would send them all the same way. The Church needs native American ministers. Kelly is moving to Madison Barracks, Sackett's Harbor, New York, the last of this month. He will start when William M. Graham relieves him here. Kelly shall be glad to welcome Henry whenever he cares to come. He asks Henry to give Sergeant Boll his discharge when Henry sees him. Kelly saw Hayden a few days ago in Boston. He hears poor John Edwads is going to the dogs in Portland Oregon. :: III-3-a A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
