and myself the pleasure of vis-
iting you but must postpone it. If the weather will at all
permit and no unexpected obstacle occur I will carry
her to see you probably before I go West, and of at the far-
thest when I go West which I now think will be after
the Election, say 8th or 10th November.
We congratulate you on your being again in your own
house as Frances received your letter this evening and
will take order about the spoons.
Yours affectionately alway[ s ]
Reason:
W.H. Seward.
