29th Still dead head wind we are still in sight
of the Tuscan light we have now been 6 days
beating in this channel & ownly got 150 miles
last night was Also a tedious night to us. I trust
my family & friends are doing better on the
Liverpool than we are I feel vary anxious
to get to my friends in Con so that we can
continue our Journey west with the labours
And cares I have resting upon me it is trying to
be confined so long in one place doing nothing
the wind changed this afternoon so we
were enabled to make about 50 miles today
