Denver, Spt. 1882
Rev. S. Morais
Phild.
My dear friend and colleague,

I beg to apologize for not answering your friendly few lines sooner. I have a busy time of it now here; in fact too busy to be comfortable. I can scarcely find time to sit down leisurely for a meal, the people think they have got a minister & he is to do every thing, ever the writing or inditing their new year speaches & addresses! So I am kept busy sometimes for hours & hours that makes me forget my most esteemed friends.
I am in possession of Professor Davidson's improved Buxtorf's concordance which cost me 27#. & this will prevent me from

becoming a subscriber to the one proposed. Send me, however, a proof-sheet, that I see what is like, may be I will consider it yet.
With my best wishes to yourself & children for the coming season
I am
Yours faithfully
[?]

P. S. I am told that there is a very good translation of the [Hebrew] out in English. Have you seen it? & who is the publisher?
