TranscriptNew Orleans Dec; 9th'54

Dear Sir,

I have been here now
nearly three weeks and am about
as far from having the business
settled as when I came here. I
think it is very probable that I
will make arrangements to
go into business here and bring
my wife out next Fall. The
weather is rather cool at present
just cold enough to make one
walk smart. Business is
very dull. the tides are very
low so that there will be
nothing done till they get
in good navigable tides.I
have not heard from Sissy
in Philada [Philadelphia?] since I left. How
are they all- Remember me
to George & Jane & Beck.

Yours truly
A. McFeeters
