You see I have told them so much about you and our wanderings together that they know you most as well as I I was not surprised to hear that John Smith was dead he was older than he looked to be I would like to see George [Kinney?] I sometimes think I will take a trip out there and see what is left of old friends and see what Changes there are When you write me again you must give me more particulars about Hutching how does it happen that he has had four[6]and as I have given you as complete a history as I can and I will say that my best wishes accompany this letter and I shall be more than pleased to hear from youYours SincerelyHenry Randall#554 Pleasant StWorcester Mass
