Galveston Jany. 20Th 1855
Saturday Night
My esteemed friend
I avail myself of the earliest opportunity to express my sincere acknow-ledgements for the very kind notice you have taken of my melancholy request con-veyed in the few lines I addressed you Nov. 15th. The Jany. Number of the “Occident” arrived to-day, wherein my dear sister and self read with deep emotion the very appropriate and feeling tribute you have paid to the mem-ory of our loved departed ones. It elicited feelings of gratitude towards you that I would willingly convey to paper, but I know that I could not do justice to you, or myself in attempting to express them. I must therefore beg you kind friend, to receive my assurance, that we both entertain sentiments of high regard for you, and shall never be unmindful of the strong and satisfactory proof you have given us
of your friendly consideration. In all probability, with God's will, we will shortly be in your city, when I trust to be enabled to express in stronger terms how much we appreciate the favor confer-red. Hoping that you derived ben-efit from your western tour, and that these few lines will find you in the enjoyment of health, with the combined regards of my beloved sister, and brother-in-law, I remain dear sir your sincerely obliged friend
