Titusville, PennsylvaniaAs Written:Pa., JanuaryAs Written:Jany, 28 1884
Dearly Beloved -

I am at work here organizing a stock Company, and it now seems as if I will soon have it arranged as I wish- Then I shall be free so that I can go into the work I so long to do- The very thought of it gives me joy.

I will not now attempt a letter only a few words, to let you know how I am progressing. I expect to return to WilliamsportEditorial Note: Williamsport, Pennsylvania in a few days to complete arrangementsAs Written:arrangments in transferring the business over to the CompanyEditorial Note: See 382.50.038..

I enclose little slipEditorial Note: This slip is not extant. to show what is being done.

I have been trying to write another article for the dear "Journal," but I am so mixed up in all these business matters that it seems impossible to concentrate my thoughts on other and more important things - but soon - soon this will be changed I hope and pray.

Dear Teacher - With all my heart I say -

God bless you -

Ever Faithfully Yours
E. J. Smith.
