VERNON, ONEIDA COUNTY,
N. Y., Dec. 8, 1852.
DEAR SON JOHN, — I have this moment got a line from Mr. Ely,
saying our trial at Boston will not come on until the first week in January
next. I give you this early notice, in hopes that it will relieve your mind in
a measure, and that it will be more convenient for you to be absent at that
time. I do not know whether I shall be able to go home again before that time
or not. Will write you hereafter when to set out for Boston, and supply you
with funds for expenses. My best wishes for you all.
