My dear Colonel
We felt the most painful anxiety for Mrs Lee on your voyage up yesterday, aware as we were of her great timidity on water. I thought Mother and Mrs Houston would have gone into fits to see the Boat top and dive in the breakers. Of course you reached home safe with your preci -ous charge. Don't let it deter the Madam from coming to see us in future. The Ladies salute Mrs Lee and the dear little Lee, with their best respects, to Col Morgan!
I send you No 2, of "Truth," and as it is interlined so much, I hope you will have it copied, corrected and if you can, hand it to Baker

Dear Col I rec'd your medicine, and finding on trial that it did not agree with me. I quit it and find that I am better without it. I wish you would speak to Mr Lee,if he is at home, and please say to him that I hold a note on him given for a share in the City of Sabine, and even a part of the am mount, would be of great service to Me as I never felt the need of cash so much. I hope it will be in his pow er to help me out for the present, or I will be disturbed indeed. If Kosciusco can spare his hounds (the [two?] dogs) for a few days, I would like to borrow them: and Mr Armstrong will bring them in his Boat.
