Dear Brother and sisters,
By this I let you know that we received your letter which give us grate satisfaction to here from you (…?) move in this life. But believe me (sis/this?) it has afflicted us very much to here that you have lost your wife and likewise sister Polly to think that a cold and silent grave (grace?) should embrace (there hands?).
I received your letter the 29 of June last. Dear brother I have wrote 4 or 5 letters to you but it appears to be a thing impossable for you to git them. I should have come to see you but hurry of buysness and urgance of afairs have hindred my willingness in the first place. Rebeckah has been sick very much since we have been married. We have two children both boys George Washington and John (B?) Nye. With her first one she lost her left brest and lay (quie?t) 4 months and bett (hole in letter - maybe bettered?) and then with the next she she lost her write brest. But they have both mended and she gives (seed or suds?) out of both. Sir it appears that it pleases god to keep us seperated from one another ever since I have been (hurried?) (by?) our family. We can’t (have?) no more at this time but write a few lines to each other. But I hope that we will one day meet face to face so that our joy may be filled. You need not to look for me this fall for I expect to start to Rusel County the 25th of this month in order to purchice a lot and a small track of land containing 150 akers that I have partly agreed for it is not more than one mile from the coast.
I dwo (do?) think it will be the gratist place for me that I can find. The best kind of wheat is selling there for fifty cts and excelant water. I dwo expect to du grate bysness there if I (wonst) git (fixed?) there. I should be very glad if you would come and see us this fall if any of you can make it (….?) with out ingering your selves. I dwo expect you will find us in Russell County VA where the court house is now to be.
I wrote a letter to Mr. James Kidmane (?) Kidmore (?) and have not rcvd any answer yet. I have no more.
Friends
But remember our love to all (there is giving?)
