Dear Sir:
My dear Father
I have just
recd your letter enclosing
the one from Mr Patterson
Birth: 1799-11-11 Death: 1879-10-15
.
It is impossible for me to
go to Westfield just know,
as I am entirely alone in
the office with the exception
of an inexperienced clerk
Unknown
who
I could not trust for the
length of time it would require
me to be absent.
I have written Mr Patterson
asking if it would be just as
convenient if I were to go
there in the early part of
January
Your afft Son
Wm H Seward Jr
