Daniel Webster to Richard M. Blatchford, April 30, 1851—2:30 p.m.

[April 30.] Wednesday, half-past two o'clock.

MY DEAR SIR,—I have yours of yesterday, and am most happy to hear your cold is better. We shall be happy to see Ellen.

We have bad weather, and I am just closing up a long day's work.

The Cuban expedition will all blow out, North and South. Those engaged in it are a set of geese.
