 Title:  Letter to Angelica Schuyler Church (January 22) [a machine-readable transcription]

 Description: The fatigues of my journey were solaced this morning by a happy meeting with your father and mother. The very favourable accounts which I had of your father's health fell short of the reality. He is asto- nishingly recovered. The reception he gave me was more than usually cordial; for which I am no doubt indebted to your recommendation.

 Description: There is no proof of my affection which I would not willingly give you. How far it will be practicable to accomplish your wish respecting your father is however very uncertain — Our republican ideas stand much in the way of accumulating offices in one family — Indeed I doubt much whether your father could be prevailed upon to accept. I do not however urge this point till I can better ascertain the ground — There is as yet no certainly here of the mission from England; which must precede one from this Country.

 Published:  1996

 Description: At length, Dear Angelica our apprehensions are realized and your coming is deferred. But though life is too short to render it agreeable to lose even a winter in the passage from hope to enjoyment in any thing which materially interests us — yet if you do really come in the spring and bring with you Mr. Church it will afford us consolation, because it will leave life ultimately at hazard and may give us earlier the pleasure of seeing him — But prithee do not let the Winter freeze the inclination and produce more procrastination — For one cannot always live on hope — Tis thin diet at best.

 Subjects:  University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text | UVA-LIB-ASChurchletters 
 Description: I am thus far my dear Angelica on my way to attack and subdue the wicked insurgents of the West — But you are not to promise yourself that I shall have any trophies to lay at your feet. A large army has cooled the courage of those madmen & the only question seems now to be how to guard best against the return of the phrenzy.[1]

 Published:  1996 
 Subjects:  University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text | UVA-LIB-ASChurchletters 
 Description: What is the reason that we have been so long without a line from you? Does your affection for us abate?— If it does you are very ungrateful; for I think as kindly as ever of My Dear Sister in Law -and Betsey has lately given me a stronger proof than she ever did before of her attachment to you. Guess if you can what this is. If you can't guess, you must wait for an explanation until we meet once more —

 Description: After taking leave of you on board of the Packet, I hastened home to sooth and console your sister.[1] I found her in bitter distress; though much recovered from the agony, in which she had been, by the kind cares of M.rs Bruce[2] and the Baron.[3] After composing her by a flattering picture of your prospects for the voyage and a strong infusion of hope, that she had not taken a last farewell of you; The Baron little Phillip[4] and myself, with her consent, walked down to the Battery, where with aching hearts and anxious eyes we saw your vessel, in full sail, swiftly bearing our loved friend from our embraces. Imagine what we felt. We gazed, we sighed, we wept; and casting "many a lingering longing look behind" returned home to give scope to our sorrows, and mingle without restraint, our tears and our regrets. The good Baron has more than ever rivetted himself in my affection : to observe his unaffected solicitude and see his old eyes brimful of sympathy has something in it that won my whole soul and filled me with more than usual complacency for human nature. Amiable Angelica! how much you are formed to endear yourself to every good heart. How deeply you have rooted yourself in the affections of your friends on this side the Atlantic! Some of us are and must continue inconsolable for your absence.

 Description: I embrace this opportunity, My Dear Friend, by Mr. Marshall, to tell you that my health which had suffered a severe shock by an attack of the malignant disease lately prevalent here is now almost completely restored. The last vestige of it has been a nervous derangement; but this has nearly yielded to Regimen, a certain degree of exercise and a resolution to overcome it.
