Dear Henry
I have just learned that Mr Duer

-
sets off on Monday, the 3d time to see Mr Biddle
Birth: 1819-04-30 Death: 1873-09-28

in Phil - without knowing whether he will return
on Tuesday or Wednesday. Immediately on
his return, I expect to be dispatched and
will probably be with you on Thursday or
Friday. I am getting crazy to be at home.
Great preparation is making to give

a splendid reception.
Your grateful Brother
