Thursday Evening.
My dear Fanny
Father is very much altered since you saw him -- sadly haggard-looking, but with more mental activity. He earnestly prays to be at rest. If possible I will send for you to-morrow afternoon -- but do not let any one else come to inquire for it harasses me without any corresponding advantage. 781
Your affectionate
