Dear Mrs Hale
I was over in the City,
at Whitehursts, this morning, and
had my dagguerrotype [daguerreotype] taken.
They will forward it to you this
afternoon.
Mlle Jayelle promised to
be in, in the course of the day &
sit for hers. If she keeps the appointment,
Whitehurst will send[DE:s] the picture
with mine.
I do not know why
I say this to you - but - I wish God
would bless me with one friend both
good and wise. Wishing you great
success, I am -
Very Respectfully Yours
