July 28.
I reached here yesterday and have seen few people as yet.
Here I expect letters from those to whom I have written. I conclude that your
operations will not be delayed if the money reaches you in course of the next
fortnight, if you are sure of having it then. I cannot certainly promise that
you will, but I think so. Harriet Tubman is probably in New Bedford, sick. She
has stayed here in N. E. a long time, and been a kind of missionary. Your
friends in C. are all well; I go back there in a week. God prosper you in all
your works! I shall write again soon.
Yours ever,
F.
