Dr Henry
I have your letter from Buffalo
Name: City: Buffalo
County:
State: NY
Country: US
& shall shall endeavor to hold an a steady
hand.
Not a word from D.
touching the execution of the deeds.
I have this day sent J.D.
Name: John Duer
Birth: 1782-10-07
Death: 1858-08-08
your
draft on Ch. Co Bank $623. 90/100 - & list of
all previous remittances - and asked
an acknowledgement.
I do not think F.
sent me, quite full enough to meet
the case- although perhaps enough to
say at one time.

has been in to say that there
is more mischief at work than you
immagine - but it is probable that his
fear was excited by a simple expression
of opinion from, perhaps a secret foe -
my own observation of what is said
certainly gives me no cause of alarm.
We will endeavor to be watchful.
