Letter from Aaron's grandfather praising young Aaron's style and the fact that "not a word was misspelt." Also, mentions visiting guests, pleasant weather, and that he doesn't "...know what got into [Aaron's] hens. they stopped laying as soons as you left home. I suppose they are grieving at your absence." Ends with a humorous anecdote about Aaron's dog , Leo, getting himself into "mischief" at the butchers.
