Tells his wife he is still in Boston, but is planning his departure and should be home by Saturday, 24 December. Asks her to send four horses, with bridles and saddles, to Mrs. Tuckham's house in Wiscasset, so he can have them when he arrives there on the 23rd. Adds that a Judge Cochran of Canada will be traveling with him, which is why he needs the extra horses. Explains the arrangements he has made with Mr. [Benjamin] Bussey (see GLC02437.07836) and why he has made them. Mentions that he would like to take Lucy and the children with him when he travels next.
