Boston, Mass., Feb. 25th, 1857.
WILLIAM STILL, Esq.: — Dear Sir — I have not heard from you
for some time. I take this opportunity of writing you a few lines to let you
and all know that I am well at present and thank God for it. Dear Sir, I hear
that the under ground railroad was in operation. I am glad to hear that. Give
my best respects to your family and also to Dr. L., Mr. Warrick, Mr. Camp and
familys, to Mr. Fisher, Mr. Taylor to all Friends names too numerous to mention.
Please to let me know when the road arrived with another cargo. I want to come
to see you all before long, if nothing happens and life lasts. Mrs. Gault
requested me to learn of you if you ask Mr. Bagnal if he will see father and
what he says about the children. Please to answer as soon as possible. No more
at present from a friend,
THOMAS F. PAGE.
