Supplied

Reason: 
pleas
at the suggestion of my friend Jonas M Wheeler
Birth: 1787-03-25 Death: 1878-10-16
. and
for fear that I may forget this request I write you to say
he wants to be sergeant at arms: Granger
Birth: 1792-12-01 Death: 1868-08-31
is doing
all he can for him, Sibley
Birth: 1796-11-06 Death: 1852-09-08
will lend his effforts and
as you know the man, and know him to be good and
true — (and he is better and truer than you know him) may
I hope that you will do all you can for him
Weed

I think they would see some things differently were one
of them to spend the Winter in the focus of Albany
All well. Lazette
Birth: 1803-11-01 Death: 1875-10-03
health about as when here. we have
raised a Negress — not heard from Auburn this week
Sibley left on Saturday: have a long letter to write to you
