shabby and I must get some new ones.
When I have paid for the clothing
that I require immediately there will
be but a few cappers left in my pocket
and I would like some means sent
me as soon as poosible. I have deprived
myself of nearly all pleasures and some
of the nescessaries of life, at times going
hungry rather than buy food, and
I always purchase the plainest, generaly
bread and butter. But I am quite cont-
ented to live this way if it is nescess-
ary that I should do so. It cost 12
shillings to go to London to the conf-
erences held there. I have said so much
that you might know about how
I am situated. Am feeling well in
spirits, but health not the best. Well I will
say good by Your affectionate Son
Asahel.
