ST. CATHARINES, C.W., Oct. 5th, 1854.
MR. WM. STILL:--Dear Sir--I have learned of my friend, Richmond
Bohm, that my clothes were in Philadelphia. Will you have the
kindness to see Dr. Lundy and if he has my clothes in charge, or
knows about them, for him to send them on to me immediately, as
I am in great need of them. I would like to have them put in a
small box, and the overcoat I left at your house to be put in
the box with them, to be sent to the care of my friend, Hiram
Wilson. On receipt of this letter, I desire you to write a few
lines to my wife, Mary Atkins, in the care of my friend, Henry
Lowey, stating that I am well and hearty and hoping that she is
the same. Please tell her to remember my love to her mother and
her cousin, Emelin, and her husband, and Thomas Hunter; also to
my father and mother. Please request her to write to me
immediately, for her to be of good courage, that I love her
better than ever. I would like her to come on as soon as she
can, but for her to write and let me know when she is going to
start.
Affectionately Yours,
