"Dear William: it is a long time since your mother has
spoken a word with you, but it is not because she don't love you,
or has forgotten you, but wishes more to see you than word can
paint. But your brothers plague me so bad that I can (Not) write.
Little George runs all round the house throws everything into
the fire that he can find, and does all the mischief he can, and
talks two or three words. Charles trips him up, pushes him down,
gets away with his playthings, and plagues him all the time. I
hope, William, you are one of the best boys in town. You must
not play with bad boys, nor learn any of their naughty words.
You must not forget what a good granpa you have lost but remember
and do as he used to tell you, and be good and obedient to Aunt
Lucy, and when you die, you will meet grandpa again in Heaven."
Martha Ormsby
William was in Walpole, N.H. and the grandpa she refers to is Stephen Ormsby. He died Nov. 4, 1821. The letter must have been written a month or so after grandfather's death.
