Description

Susan Niemcewicz wrote from 19 Bond Street, New York, New York to Thomas Dayton Elizabethtown, New Jersey, New York. Susan was informed that the expense and loss of bringing hay from Ursino to New York would be less by land compared to the waste and loss of time by water. If Mr. Parcels could make it convenient, Susan wanted the hay to be sent to New York by land. The livery man made inquiries with Peter regarding it. Thanked Thomas for receiving from E. Wade and hoped he was ready to make another payment. Susan wished to have everything settled and collected income enough to remit money abroad. Found it extraordinary that she had not heard from William Halstead and that he neglected to communicate with Thomas. It was unpleasant to resort to legal means, but Susan feared she must do it in justice to her heirs. Heard from her friends in Philadelphia that Mrs. Palmer and the girls were very gay. As late as the 14th of April, Mr. Niemcewicz desired his best remembrances to his friends in Elizabeth Town. Made note of the cost of hay being sold in Elizabethtown. Asked if she owed anything to the shops in E.T. more than Peter’s pantaloons. Enquired about turnpike dividends and Mr. Nuttman’s health.
