Identifier: CBRH III-3-b

Scope and Contents

Orestes has not heard from his brother for a long time but has received volume 19 of Brownson's Works. He hopes the publishing project is doing well financially, and that Henry's health and that of his family is good. He is very anxious to hear from Henry. His son John Brownson is now a Doctor and living in town with his family of six. His daughter Mary Brownson is in Denver, SallyBrownson teaching school a few miles away, Ned Brownson in the Wisconsin pineries with his wife and two children, Annie, Louisa and Rosa Brownson running the farm here, Charles Brownson and Orestes at school, and Mrs. Brownson helping the girls. He has had the rheumatism during the winter but all are well now. Orestes has nothing to complain of but the ills of old age, and there is nothing to be done about that. :: III-3-b A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
