“Pictou, 7th November 1823
Dear Mother,
I received your letter dated March 24th and I was very happy to hear that you and your children and their families were all in good health.
I and James are well and my father’s family. I would have not [asked?] you [this before], but I wish to hear from Alexander but I had no word from him – but I saw one of his neighbours a few days ago. A friend of ours, and he said that he was well, and his wife and children. He was still in the same place and he expected [to be hired], but [it didn’t happen?].
Give my best respects to all my good brothers and sisters.
I remain your loving Daughter.”
