My dear Bishop,
I am much obliged by your kind letter & thankful for your safe return & improved health. I cannot send [?] letter of transfer, till I have made certain [?] which recent unfortunes has made [?]. As to the Pan Anglican, I have not expected to go. Bp. Bedell’s absence is a difficulty. But it is the least busy part of the year I should like to know what you think of it, especially as to the usefulness or any particular usefulness in my going. I am wholly at [see] about, & should not go of my own venture. I have [?] no means & must like the daughter who has gone with me the last two times & is [?].
Let me hear you in haste,
Yours very affectionately,
Charles P. McIlvaine
