Expresses her gratitude for the care given to her friend, Orice, before his death. Asks Ogden whether Orice "said any thing before he died, for I think it is a pleasure to know what they say, if they do say anything before death." Says she received word from Orice's mother about where and how he was buried. Recommended that the family allow "him rest where he is." Mentions the arrival of his personal items, as well as "the lock of hair which you sent me," which she "put in a very neat little pin." Concludes by once again thanking both Mrs. Ogden and Mrs. Hastings.
