My Dearest Friend
I sent you the letters _ I could not keep my hands off of Mabby's. I beg her pardon.
They write me flattering accounts from Phil<sup>a</sup>.
M<sup>r</sup> Anthony writes most confidently. No danger
No fever - alls well.
When [Brister?] goes he should throw [undecipherable] into the [undecipherable] vault [undecipherable].
I think we ought to have been together to day. But tomorrow will do.
I am glad Malcolm came out.
We must prepare to go to Phila the first week in Nov<sup>r</sup> if no bad news.
Caroline & all are well
The President of the U.S.
