Dear son Summy
I will not take my Buckingham trip this week, & may come
in this week to see you all.
I wish you w.d in your walks to town, see Mr. Shaff or
Mr. Harmer, I w.d prefer Shaff & tell him I have 2 Beef cows, &
good calves to sell, & I wish him to come out this week.
See also Mr. Widderfield about that old clock & see what
sort of a trade you can make. We want a good time piece warranted,
to cost 5 or 6$, or if very nice & good, 8 or 9$. He ought to
allow us 7 or 8 for ours at least. You can talk nicely with him.
Love to all.
Your father truly
D. G. Smith
Enquire if any stock cattle are passing through town.
