Description

Peter Kean wrote from Albany, New York to Susan Niemcewicz in Elizabethtown, New Jersey. Peter claimed that with the exception of being very love sick he was otherwise in good health. S. [Sally Jay] accused Peter that he paid her compliments that the innocent and amiable girl detested. He tried to convince her of his sincerity but such was her diffidence that she would not believe the truth. Peter took a walk with Sally and Miss Lansing the following day. Peter received Susan’s letter of the twenty seventh enclosing a check for one hundred and six dollars. Discussed mutual friends and acquaintances. Robert Sedgwick left Albany for New York so Peter had no one but the Jay family to associate with. People mentioned: Sarah Louisa Jay (1792-1818), Miss Lansing, Robert Sedgwick
