St. John's 20th Nov. 1841
My Dear Matt
The order you sent me on Mr. Rendell he would not pay it until you advised it, if you do not come over in the next Packet you had better advise it. Thos. Says you had better comer over here and settle with your men, even if you had to go back again. Thos. Says he is half a fraid that the men have been vexing you and you are taking a little drop too much. However it is there must be something or other the matter with you. All the folks at Caplin Bay are well. Doctor Bryan was lost about a week ago and there is no account of him since. As I have nothing more to write at present I conclude this epistle wishing you to come a crop by return of the boats.
I remain my dear Matt
Your affectionate mother
Mrs. Morry
