With regret I have seen by your letter that you have also been sick, ? so is it with us...Hebrew Thank to God, that you & I, have been restored to health & spared per-haps for a few years longer.
In regard to your remark, that the Occident for me was sent back to you

I can only assure you Hebrew for it would have been not only against all courtesy, but even un-grateful, for you have never charged me anything for it, & why should I offend you & be ? Hebrew I thought, that at this hard times you don't send any more gratis exemplars, & I excused you perfectly, but I have never sent any of your copies back.
