John Goldsmith Jay, Letter 1, ca.1900 sorry to hear of ? ? a mishap to him. I hope he does not suf- fer a great deal of pain but I suppose ? has taken measures to reduce that to a minimum. Sep [Septimus] didn’t write to me about it. I have just received a letter from Mother telling me of Boud’s hurt- ing himself. I would go home this evening if I could have  ? but I have some patients whom I cannot very well get away from just now. I wrote to you and Mother some time since (more than two weeks ago) but as Mother didn't say any thing about receiving my letter in the mail I just received from him perhaps you never got mine. I was at cousin Eliza's this morning, and saw Agnes and cousin ? . Anges is I think well. I have at last gotten entirely sick of my rheumatism; it has not troubled me now for more than a week, but it ? so closely for a while that I began to regard it al- most as a permanent infirmity. Give my love to Mother and all at home. I will write to Writer John Goldsmith Jay Date written ca. 1900? Paper Pen Penmanship Style File name Jay John Goldsmith 1848-0x-0x
