Dear Bro:
No copy of the play has been printed:
Yr cheque rec’d.
Your poetry is all right, only the man whose attention could be diverted by the sun, while dimmed to a farthing candle by the insupportable splendor of the visible face of God, would certainly be a curious duck.
Livy is getting along only tolerably, but the children are in matchless health.
With love from us all to you both—
Sam
