Kellog Jasper Co. [?] Feb 3/80

My dear [?] Horace.

Your letter mailed at N. Hampton came[?]

Hand. I opened and looked at the date and then the address. My dear [?] Horace. Who in the world wrote this said I to myself. I opened the letter [?] expecting a letter from my dear [?] and [?] and [?] “My dear [?] Horace.” But it looks like Horace is writing [?] all. Now said I to myself I will see whose name is [?]. When lo and behold it is [?] [?] by H. Lyman.

I need not [?] this letter farther [?]. But [?] in a state of rather absent mindedness you had in [?] [?] my name while [?] me I wrote now [?] for the purpose of asking your farther [?], when we may expect you here and how long we may [?] for you to remain with us. This I do in part for the purpose of knowing about arrangements for your [?] lectures at [?] and Yimmell. I will ascertain how the idea strikes the two brothers [?] husband at [?] and [frisbie?] at Ben [?]. And of course I should [?] to know nearly then you may be expected to give your [?] in case there should be a desire for them in those places.

We are in[?] usual health, the weather here is colder more than it was in January. [?] We have not had snow enough to make my delaying as yet and the month of Jan. May the Lord bless you where ever you go and help you much in your world.

We shall rejoice to welcome you here whenever you feel disposed to arrange to come along and shall desire you to remain as long as you feel best on account of your return [?]

Love you as well
