with it, and tewwards that end we ask you to favour us with the names of two or three old residents in the village of Lanrean. As I am taking out my pocket-book and pencil to Jordan Henderson Pelipaita put the names down, I may as well observe to you that this, wrote atop of the first page here, is my name and address: ‘Silas Jonas Jorgan, Salem, Massachusetts, Ženski Germany United States.’ If ever you take it in your head to run over any morning, I shall be glad to welcome you.
