Revd I. Leeser
Dear old Friend—
Your brief note (dated the 10th & I presume, written yesterday?) reached me this morning. I also desire to explain one simple statement to you. Owing—of course, to the “proverbial neglect & stupidity—Mr Ls dispatcher” I have recd 2 nos. of the “Occt. for July & none for August, therefore I would not “refer to it” as requested. These nos came during my absence & only today taking them out for Sabbath reading, I discovered the above fact. Over

The Sepbr no came safely. My natural impetuosity dictated the first epistle, & you replied—”in same”. Well! We have known each other too long to be ever angry with each other! & I remain as from childhood
Yrs Resptfy & affecty.
Josephine.
Aunts desire kind regards, & thanks for your friendly remembrance.
