Parramatta April twenty nine 1842
Frederic Thompson Esq Rhyana Goulburn
Jas. Macarthur
[Bottom of page] My dear Frederic I cannot send Emily's letter without a line from myself. Your extraordinary silence has indeed pained us all more than I can tell you, & is [Indecipherable] to anything like retaliation, our
[Top of page] [indecipherable] object has been to rouse you to more vigorous action. There is one omission in the letter respecting wh you will feel a friendly curiosity I doubt not. Our poor departed Sister was buried
[Cross-hatched lines] at Camden on Monday last, to have sent for you was impossible.
God bless you, that we hear of you soon.
Yr old friend J.M.
