By the good providence of God over all, we have been mercifully preserved from any serious sickness, but qur little ailments have always met with prompt and coniannal attention from you. If the knowledge of our unqualified good wishes and sincere regard will afford you any gratification, be assured they aro yours. , We are, Yours very sincerely, (Signed by Captain and Passengers.)
