Rail Road Station
Utica N. Y. 25th Sept.

My Dear Gay.

I received yours at
Waterloo. Many thanks for your
kindness and promptness.
It impossible for me to write
at length now—I write this
to safe your writing me at
Albany. I have no tidings
from Dear Garrison—but
hope for the best. I am
greatly annoyed that I
do not hear. I sent a telegraph
dispatch on Thursday, and hoped
to have got an answer
yesterday—but was compelled
to leave Auburn before it
reached that place that place.
I am now on my way to
West Windfield. Our meetings
have been large.

In the utmost haste

Yours ever

Frederick Douglass
