Quotes from Letter, August 5, 1858, John Jenkins, Hamilton, Canada, to Richard K. Call:

"It is with the deepest emotions of gratitude Sir I acknowledge the receipt of your letter, giving your consent to let me have my Daughter Mary [and for] the moderation of your price. . . Please let me know by letter when you are ready and what day she will leave Tallahassee. . . Please give my respects to Mary, tell her, her friends are awaiting her arrival with great anxiety, thinking it almost an impossibility that the two Sisters should ever again be reunited on Earth."
