The box of confectionary will be sent off this evening
so as to reach the Point of Rocks tomorrow morning. The Pine
Apples and Oranges cannot be had of a quality sufficient to send.
The rest of the things are forwarded. Hope you will get them safe,
and sound.

We have most extremely hot weather, and are trying to
keep as cool as possible. There are too campmeetings in progress
noe for Baltimore. But the weather is most too warm for us to
attend. They are said to be very large.

I go to H. de grace every Saturday.

We should like to be you if it were not quite so hot and
other things would permit. Hope you are all well. Our love to all.
