Description

Nancy Spear (Speer) apologizes for not writing sooner, and thanks Finley profusely for his last letter. She tells of activities in her own home, and in Zanesville. She is sitting by the fire with Sarrah and Mrs. Taylor, who sends her love to Mrs. Finley. David is again out in the fields. There have been many recent deaths in Zanesville, including Mrs. George and Mrs. Calhoun. Rev. Culbertson is lying on his death bed. The families of Brothers Crum & Miley are well. Cousin David is obliged to Finley for his kind offer to "tie the knot", but is still too young to marry. Cousin Sallie might give Finley "a knot to tie" before too long. As for herself, she can find no man that she loves as much as herself. She asks for a long letter from Finley soon. Abstract Number - 318
