&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oblige me by devoting as much attention to my little Girl as you can, and get her out of Danger.  Her mother was afraid of the Tongue's mortifying, but God forbid such an event should occur!
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is I believe her season of second Teeth and the Tongue may be lacerated by an old fang if such be the fact let it be extracted and if Leeches are wanted Mr Pitherbridge I believe has some.  Write to us when you consider her out of danger for I am very anxious
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours very truely

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Sir
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oblige me by devoting as much attention to my little Girl as you can, and get her out of Danger.  Her mother was afraid of the Tongue's mortifying, but God forbid such an event should occur!
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is I believe her season of second Teeth and the Tongue may be lacerated by an old fang if such be the fact let it be extracted and if Leeches are wanted Mr Pitherbridge I believe has some.  Write to us when you consider her out of danger for I am very anxious
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yours very truely

&lt;p&gt;DINNA FRET.  Music by G. Estabrook
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Is the road very dreary? Patience yet! Rest will be sweeter if thou art aweary And after
night, Cometh the morning cheery! Then, 'bide a wee"! Then, "bide a wee"
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sharper sting grief will burrow [illegible] regret. But yesterday is gone and shall its sorrow Unfit us for the
present, Unfit us for the morrow? Nay, "bide a wee!" Nay, "bide a wee"
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Copyright 1885 by THE CHICAGO MUSIC CO.

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And, dinna fret.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The clouds have silver lining. Don't forget. And though he's hidden The sun is still shineing.
Courage! instead of tears, Of tears, and vain repining. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With toil and cares unending Art beset Behold the tempest, From heav'n descending.
Severs the might oak, But spares the willow bending.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Rest will be sweeter if thou art aweary And after night cometh the morning cheery!
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then "bide a wee"! 
Then "bide a wee"!  
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nay "bide a wee"!
Nay, "bide a wee"!  
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And, dinna fret.

&lt;p&gt;DINNA FRET.  Music by G. Estabrook
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Is the road very dreary? Patience yet! Rest will be sweeter if thou art aweary And after
night, Cometh the morning cheery! Then, 'bide a wee"! Then, "bide a wee"
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sharper sting grief will burrow [illegible] regret. But yesterday is gone and shall its sorrow Unfit us for the
present, Unfit us for the morrow? Nay, "bide a wee!" Nay, "bide a wee"
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And, dinna fret.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The clouds have silver lining. Don't forget. And though he's hidden The sun is still shineing.
Courage! instead of tears, Of tears, and vain repining. 
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;With toil and cares unending Art beset Behold the tempest, From heav'n descending.
Severs the might oak, But spares the willow bending.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Rest will be sweeter if thou art aweary And after night cometh the morning cheery!
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then "bide a wee"! 
Then "bide a wee"!  
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nay "bide a wee"!
Nay, "bide a wee"!  
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And, dinna fret.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have no objection to your offer upon one condition: that you interest yourself with the President  by your friends so as to get the innocent men condemned as Pirates (now in Boston) pardoned.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Their Execution is to take place on the eleventh day of March &amp;amp; I am sure they are innocent.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Work like a good fellow and get them pardon'd &amp;amp; we will not quarrel about the terms of an Engagement.
