Dear Ladoc,
We rec'd your interesting letters by your uncle Lucius. You are a good boy to write so much. We will not tax you to write, except when you can do it with convenience + pleasure--and we will write you all the same. I am pleased with the good penmanship, the ease + and frankness of your letters. I am not surprised that you are a little homesick. I expected it. I rejoice that your health [underlined] is good, + that you get along well at the desk. As you go into the store , on [underlined] trial [underlined], if you succeed well + can earn it, I have no doubt. J. N. Denison Co. will pay you as much, the first year, as Geo. offered. You can talk with Addison about it + I will mention it to Denison who I go to Boston. It is, however, more important for your future [underlined] interest to acquire, by thorough practice, the qualification + reputation for business than a 100 doll. more or less at first.
