My Dear Mr. Leeser
I have received nothing yet from you this month. What is the matter? I hope you are not sick. Since I last wrote you we have been in much confusion at the office caused by a fire on the promises on the morning of the 14th May, causing however, more damage by water than by fire and obliging us to remove to other quarters for a month. We are now in order again at the old place. E J King has paid his bill say $18 and said he had ordered the Occident dis-continued. I have not noticed the Messr Hendricks in your printed acknowledgements. I enclose copy of a noti recd from Mr. Morrison a few days since for your guidance in mailing.
Tomorrow I start on an excursion to

Trenton & Niagara Falls, Montreal Quebec & c & c contemplating an absence of about 2 weeks. I go not so much for my own pleasure as I do to gratify a friend enfeebled by long sickness, in the hope that he may be benefitted.
I was very glad to hear something from you regarding Dr Wolff and family, as it was the first I had heard from or of them since I left Mobile always remember me most kindly when writing to them. I fear they have a very hard time of it under ? Stevens Military rule. What a pity Sam? made such a mistake as to trust everything to the Confederates.
With affectionate remembrance to Mr. Cozens and Ella and best wishes for their health and happiness as well as your own.
I remain in great haste
sincerely yours
H S. Hanford

Mrs. Morrison regrets not having answered Mrs. Hanford's note before Mr. Morrisons ill health has prevented her. Will thank him to stop the Occident until their return from the country when they will discharge the amount owing.
