Cambridge 9. Nov. 1795. I inclose you a Herald — our election closed this evening — The Jefferson candidate got one vote — the Adams came into 582 — no riots — noise or [undecipherable] — The [undecipherable: farmers?] came without leaders to support government they [undecipherable: shewed?] by voting for a Fed^al man as Presid^t. — I assure you I never saw an election before in which real good [undecipherable: Sense?] appeared unmixed. We do not know how the polls go in the other counties — [undecipherable] [undecipherable] is elected. A foolish report circulates that the Fr. minister is [undecipherable] by his gov^t to leave U.S. instantly & that they [undecipherable] dec- =laration of [undecipherable] them or the [undecipherable] — a wheat [undecipherable] + [undecipherable]. Adet's letter to Col. Pickering is a curious [undecipherable] in [undecipherable] business [undecipherable] — pretty much the [undecipherable] re- [undecipherable] [undecipherable] vulgar, in gen^l's way of appeal.

I dare say I am very very troublesome to you — but I take myself — & must say in write [undecipherable] more to a[ny] [undecipherable] to write to — as this is the last of [undecipherable] wherein my [undecipherable] can be most [undecipherable] deposited. I am my dear friend affectionately [undecipherable] I thank you truly for your kindness through Williams — but I do not like so expensive a Lodging as the one in [undecipherable] S^t, where M^rs Griene made [undecipherable] & [undecipherable] Cornelia [undecipherable] — M^rs Millan late of [undecipherable] — [undecipherable] I lately lived, would suit us better — She now lives I believe in Lombard S^t — The piece "[undecipherable] Musician" I do not know the writer. It has some excellent remarks in it —
