Description

Peter Kean wrote from Albany, New York to Susan Niemcewicz in Elizabethtown, New Jersey. After Peter wrote to Susan that morning, Mr. Barber visited and gave him a letter from Susan enclosing $15 for which Peter returned his sincere thanks. Col. Rutgers was not planning on visiting Albany that winter. The piece signed “Thousands of the People” was written by Mr. Bears of Albany. Peter was unsure of the author who signed a piece “An American.” He continued to discuss the study of law in the Western Country. Peter had not seen Miss Jay except at church for a week.
