My dear Son
Will you have
the goodness to address
this letter to Will
Name: William Seward
Birth: 1839-06-18
Death: 1920-04-29
.
I had a few lines
from him which came
through the Sanitary
Commission, dated 2
of June. Jennys
Name: Janet Seward
Birth: 1839-11-18
Death: 1913-11-09
last
letter which you sent
was two days later.
It is very painful to
think of the dangers
and hardships to which
he is exposed but

while his life is spared
we must not complain.
Nelly

is better than
when she came home.
Aunty
Name: Lazette Worden
Birth: 1803-11-01
Death: 1875-10-03
continues better
so far but I am con-
tinually expecting a relapse
she finds so much
to do. Catherine

is not
with her at present.
I believe she is to return.
Dr Hall

thinks Aunty
should not attempt to
travel in the cars.
Should your Father

come to New York

expect him home.
The weather is unnaturally
cool for the season.
