Florida 3 April 1833
My Dear William
By this mornings Mail I expected your
determination on the subject of Crossing the
Atlantic. This is a point I am anxious to have
you deside on. Mr Mortons
it as their opinion that he will never go to England
they say he has been talking of it this Ten years[ . ]
Reason:
The probability is that he will never get
started. Perhaps owing to a great press
of business my side is more sore and
painfull than ever. This time I settled
on my traveling Company to give
them time to prepaire.
Will you not try to bring your
family down before the session closes
I saw Van Duzer
am more than ever convinsed that
a proper return will never be made
in the Case unless you put your shoulder
to. Van Duzer says the papers ^are^ all on
file in Albany and can be had there[ . ]
Reason:
The last installment in the Whaleing
Co will come due the first of May.
The family are Well our love to
Frances.
Yours Affectionately
