     Dear Children,
     
     
      These lines may inform you that arrived hear at yesterday ninety two miles below Pittsburgh. We are now in a boat that we bought at Pittsburgh thirty three feet long and twelve feet wide said boat is roofed over and has a fire place convenient for cooking our provisions where we have a plenty of the comforts of life we have been blest with health that we have not been detained one day on account of sickness from the time we left home it was just forty days before we arrived at Pittsburgh. I have not room to write all the particulars that took place on the way. I shall not mention a few after we left Hartford we found the roads extremely bad on account of an excessive rain that took place the week before we past there which rain extended to Pittsburgh. The worst disaster that I shall note is we broke our forward akletree to the new wagon by reason of the top part of the linkpin being too long it started up a little and ketched in the jogg in the hoop and twisted and axle round in the hub this a incident cost us about eight dollars extra and detained us one day. From this time we found the roads very rough and very muddy in crossing the three first mountains by the name of the three brothers we meet with no disaster tho each mountain is three miles over and so roof and stoney and steep as could not be past with any common ox team in Barnstable with half a turn wait in many places for half a mile distance in crossing these mountains the way was so incumbered with loose stones many of which were suitable for the second tier of wall stones that the horses could not step amis of them in other places the way consisted just rocks and gullies which caused the wheels to fall of some times two feet or more in crossing the Alegana we meet with no disaster though twelve miles over and much like the others. In crossing Laurell hill we had got two thirds of the way over when we snapped the axle of the wheel on behind close to the body of the wagon nearly three miles from any use where we could get assistance this delayed us nearly one day this mountain trail is nine miles over and the ruffest of any one we crost we mired each wagon once and being told about forty miles from Pittsburgh that the road was not passable we left the Pittsburgh road went to York by river to a place called Robbstown thirty miles from Pittsburgh were we were obliged to give 18 dollars to have our two wagons and families carried to Pittsburgh here we sent our horses on to Wheeling on the Ohio River ninety two miles below Pittsburgh we shall send our horses from this land to Concinnatti which is about two hundred miles distance by land. Our horses are all as good as they were when we left Barnstable "Han May" She is wholly well of her stiffness and endured the journey well and bears grain as well as any horse and has thrived by the way your mare has gained also you may inform their friends that we found Deacon Lewis and their three sons in Pittsburgh John and Isaac, Amise Smith these men were very attentive in assisting while in Pittsburgh Mr. Ebnr Lewis has the charge of our boat and is to take us to Cincinnatti and you must inform his father that he is bound from there to Orleans. He expects to return in the spring to Cincinnatti from there to Barnstable wishing for his father to write as soon as he receives this information and direct the letter to me at Cincinnati there men are doing well and are much please with this part of the country we are congraduate on the great success of our army in Canada we wish for you to inform our aged parents that there daughter endured the journey as any of us and with all our children desire to be remembered by them also to Aunt Anna and our brothers and sisters and to all our neighbors and inquiring friends you must inform Mr. Asa Jenkins and all our friends that by showing them this letter that we could not write to each of them tell Capt. Hinckley and Capt. Hodges and Mr. Asa Jenkins that they must write to us and direct their letters to Cincinnatti and send us all the information they have respecting Barnstable and our business Lydia you or Asa must write to Deacon Nathaniel Lewis that he may write on immediately as requested this I write on board our boat blessed be God for his preserving and protecting mercy and these lines find you and all our friends enjoying the best of divine blessings and write to us as soon as you receive this and subscribe to Cincinnatti with best wishes we remain you affectionate parents,
