7448. RETIREMENT, Longing for.—[further continued].

As the moment of my
retirement approaches, I become more anxious
for its arrival, and to begin at length to pass
what yet remains to me of life and health in
the bosom of my family and neighbors, and
in communication with my friends, undisturbed
by political concerns or passions.—
To Dr. Logan. Washington ed. v, 405.
(W. Dec. 1808)
