Dear Sir!
I have received your favor of 6th inst. and was pained to learn that my son Abraham had imposed upon yr. kindness. He is unfortunately not right in his mind and still not sufficiently so to war=-rant his confinement in an asylum. He has occasioned his mother & myself great unhappiness. Altho' I appreciate your motive in assisting him I regret you did so, because there was no necessity for his absence from home; -I send you enclosed $5. in paymt. of what you were kind enough to advance him. He is still absent, & should he apply to you again I hope you will refuse him.

and if you happen to see him lecture him as severely as you can.—.
With best respects from Mrs Haart? & my family I am
Yours very resfuly
Dd. Haart
