The stagecoach which was to take this letter went by while Hervey Eliphaz Weston was watching the balloon. Warren Weston has a boarding place and left today. Hervey E. Weston relays Warren Weston's request for clothing and comments: "You will think I order pretty well!" Hervey E. Weston tells about the punishment meted out to a horse poisoner across the street.
In the postscript, Hervey E. Weston writes: "Mind send a shirt or 2 Monday or Tuesday if you get 20 tailors to do it."
