LEE MASSACHUSETTS 1846 STAMPLESS FOLDED LETTER TO HARTFORD CONNECTICUT RE: AETNA INSURANCE LOSSES IN FIRE Dear Brother, I drop you this line to have you inform me the exact amount of your mortgages on Brodums place with the date of the notes, in order that I may make my return to the Judge of Probate Had I have known the trouble of settling the estate by law I should not have consented to have gone into it. The weather here is very fine. I am cutting my hay now. Why wont you come up with your family & we will spend a little time at Lebanon Springs – or if you say Saratoga. Let me hear from you immediately. Please write me how much the Aetna lost at St John’s fire. I should have thought that eastern Offices would have refused to insure where they are known to burn up periodically. Your brother in haste, Leonard Church Along the side, he also mentions he supposes a bill by Senator McBay (?) will pass in the Senate “a prominent secy from Tory said yesterday that it will destroy their party, but what shall we say when we see the Ohio results—chewing their own words. Interesting letter between brothers. Very light postmark. The content provides the value.
