Dear brother and sister,
We have concluded to take up with your benevolent offer, and are soon trying to get ready to move. To ?? ?? - Think we shall yet ready to start next week a ??. If any thing should occur to prevent our starting on that day, I shall send you a line to Brasher Depot by ?? and let you know all about it. We are ?? well.
If you get this letter in ?? to write an answer before we start for Brasher, please write whether you think we could buy or hire a second hand plow conveniently on ??, I thought if I could hire we would leave ours behind as it is a very heavy plow. So good by till see you
