Dear Henry
I received yours of the 18th inst, today, I regret very
much that you have had so much trouble with the Poney
I would have come after him myself before this, but for the
promises I had from Mr Wisner
him home. Now Mr Van Inwegen
he has to ride him, if anything should prevent this last [ arrangemet ]
Alternate Text: arrangement

Your Cousins are rejoiced to learn that Mrs Seward
is with you in Albany.
Your Father
