My dear Uncle,
I left with Mr. [unclear: Rivencomb] at the Warm Springs some cement to fix to tomb stone to Uncle Henry grave. tell the man that is to fix it to call and get the cement or you can get it when you come to the Warm. Pa & Ma arrived here safe this morning. Ma is well but Pa is complaining of rheumatism a little. All the family join in love to Mary & Andrew and your self. We expect you all at Staunton in Oct. to the fair.
I remain your devoted nephiew,
James H. Trotter
