Dear Sir!
Owing to absence from this place, indisposition, and consequent accumulation of work I have not had the time to address you for a long period, and therefore avail myself of my first leisure to remit to you by Captn Wilkins of the Barque Paez, the amount of subscription of the Occident, due for the current year, say three dollars, returning to you my sincere thanks for the numbers already received.
I continue in expectation of your information concern „ing the Hebrew grammar and lexicon, mentioned in mine of December 5/52; as you did not decidedly mention their cost, in yours of the 31st following, I have not been able to remit the amount.
I remain with best respects.
Yours very truly.
A Myerston

Dear Sir,
Above I beg to hand you duplicate of my last per “Paez” and as I hear that that vessel was lost on her outward voyage, supposing (for I have received the August number and thank you for the same) that the July number of the Occident was, and that the hebrew Lexicon and grammar may have been on

on board, and been lost in her, I beg of you, if such should unfortunately be the case to send me another copy of that month's number, and remain with best respects
Yours very truly
A Myerston
