[line crossed out]
[words crossed out] would that I had a Thors hammer
or good sword Balming for thy sake!     And I can�t
even shake hands with you!     Nevertheless God bless 
you, good and brave and patient heart, and grant that
thy dearest wish of freedom to Hungary be soon accom-
plished!  Amen, and Amen!
  7  Sunday.  Abed till late,  breakfast, and then
scribbling awhile. Dinner, then through dank streets
and moist atmosphere to the Atlantic Street ferry, and
thus to Brooklyn, (meeting by the way the �Doctor� whom
heretofore I met at Pictons; who, speaking of him said
he was �toddying pretty freely of late,� having naught else
to do.)       Called at Dunsiers, sate awhile with
him and wife; � then on to Sand Street,  and supped
with Davis.     Played draughts afterwards with him, �
left at 9, back to New York, to Franklin and
bed about 11.
