My Dear Mother & Sister:

I don’t know of any news, except that we had a very pleasant week in Boston & are home again & all well. Charley’s clocks reminds me that in one s bric-a-brac concern in Boston they had just received 100 pairs ‸of‸ old a brass andirons—they had a man collecting them in the South—prices ranged from $5 to $1 50 a pair. We laid in a stock of them—I wish we had got Charley to rake them up for us in your neighborhood. The enclosed truck is something Livy sends to Annie’s babies.

Affly

Sam.
