WASHINGTON, March
22, 1852.
MY DEAR SON,—I
received your letter of the 8th. I was glad to receive your letter and to
peruse all the details in it.
My health continues
without any material change. I am very weak, write with no comfort, sleep
badly, and have very little appetite for my food.
You must not mind
what you see in the newspapers about me, such as that I was going to the Senate
to make a speech, etc. Not a word of truth in it.
My love to Susan and
all the children.
