Dear Baird

I will attend to your commission about the books. The dental books you'll get at your price, & less, & I think the other also.

I am glad to hear of your success in philological and in subterranean explorations. [Perge qus capiste?], Love to Mary & her mother, as well as the young specimen. Mrs Marsh has been confined

to her room most of the time for several weeks, & I feel much concern for her.

Yours trulyG. P. Marsh
