Rh letter which you saw yesterday must also be attended to, and in my present condition I can beg better than I can write. Yours faithfully D. Webster I shall see you tomorrow if weather and health allow. (From Ezekiel Webster}) Boston, Jany. 31, 1829. My Dear Brother. I intend to go to Boscawcn Monday morning. I have had a very pleasant week. The children are all well and very happy. It is very good coasting on the common and Edward is delighted. Mr. Hale tells me that the correspondence between Mr. Adams & "other folks" is now in his press & will be out in a few days. From his account of it I apprehend, the business will not end with the present publication. I trust Mr. Adams' answer will not be satisfactory to anybody. There was never a publication, 1 80 much regretted as Mr. A's ^^explanation** in the Intelligencer. You will see the account of Col. Pickering's death, before this reaches you. Judge Claggett also died very recently. I can give you nothing from New Hampshire, in addition to what I said in my last. There is a good deal of anxiety here to know what the Senate will do with the nominations now before you. Yours truly, E. Webstee. (To Ezekiel Webster.^) feb. 23. [1829] PlIVATE. DrE.
