Autograph letter signed

Title: to Robert E. Moore

He is eager to communicate with Moore's mother about the changes that have occurred there since she left. He reports deaths in the family, saying "all the old stock of Ireland are dead." Crops are promising this year, although potatoes continue to be blighted, yet not in his land. He describes plans for his children regarding school and livelihood.
