Auburn August 13th 1846
My Dear George
My incessant occupation here had pre-
vented my attending to any other business then the
trials in the Oyer and Terminer and Circuit Courts
which commenced in the first of June and ended last
Saturday.
It is not possible for me to attend to every
body's business here, as I must do to live, and to
go abroad at the same time.
I shall be at Florida week after next.
have written so to my father
Birth: 1768-12-05 Death: 1849-08-24
but his mails are so
irregular I think it best to inform you.
Mrs Seward
Birth: 1805-09-24 Death: 1865-06-21
& our two youngest children
x Birth: 1839-06-18  Death: 1920-04-29  Birth: 1844-12-09  Death: 1866-10-29

With affectionate love to all my cousins
I am Faithfully yours
William H. Seward
