PlunkettWmR1850_18XX0120_001

Andover Jan 20th

My dear Father

I had a letter from
Sarah yesterday. The first one that
I have had from home for three weeks
while I believe I have written home
every week.

Mr. Peirce was in Boston yesterday
and he saw Uncle Charles. Uncle Charles
'he says', is coming up here to see me
in a few days. I was very glad to
hear it as I should like to see
anyone that I know that comes
from anywhere near home.

I left the Mansion house the morning
you left and was not able to attend
recitation that morning on account
of my room not being prepared.
I was very sorry as I did not intend
to lose a single recitation this term.

I am getting along very well in
my studies but I have to study very (over).
