Orestes' family is well except Charles Augustus Brownson, 3 years old, who has the chicken pox. Bart. E. Linehan of Dubuque wishes to purchase a set of "Brownson's Review" for 1844 to 1864 inclusive. Orestes asks Henry where it may be had. Orestes is glad the "Convert" is selling so well and the information that Sadlier's will soon furnish a semi-annual statement comes like a shower to a man on the Sahara. His son John Brownson who will be of age next tuesday is teaching school about six miles from here. The Sisters' School St. Joseph's has an exhibition this evening is which Marie, Annie, Louisa and William Henry Edward Brownson appear in sixteen different parts, rather more than half the entire performance. All of Orestes" children sing, John plays the flute and Mary and Sarah the piano. Sarah goes to school in the city, the others here- Key West School. Orestes wants to hear all about Henry's children. He does not even know how many Henry has. He invites Henry to visit him next summer and to take one or two of his children along who would mostly benefit from country life. P.S. Orestes exchanges regularly with the Detroit Free Press. :: III-3-a A. L. S. 2pp. 8vo.
