ST. CATHARINES, C.W., October 5th, 1854.
MR. WILLIAM STILL:--_Dear Friend_:--I take the liberty to
address to you a few lines in behalf of my wife, who is still at
Norfolk, Va. I have heard by my friend Richmond Bohm, who
arrived lately, that she was in the hands of my friend Henry
Lovey (the same who had me in hand at the time I started). I
understood that she was about to make her start this month, and
that she was only waiting for me to send her some means. I would
like for you to communicate the substance of this letter to my
wife, through my friend Henry Lovey, and for her to come on as
soon as she can. I would like to have my wife write to me a few
lines by the first opportunity. She could write to you in
Philadelphia, 31 North Fifth street. I wish to send my love to
you & your family & would like for you to answer this letter
with the least possible delay in the care of Hiram Wilson.
Very respectfully yours,
