The letter reads: My dear Father, Yours of the 11th came duly at hand and noted. Everything is going on all right + business is commencing to pick up considerably. Received a letter from Miss [Rocaf?] a few days ago - she writes that Mr. Stone has had the degree of D.D. conferred upon him + that his church in honor of the raise gave him a purse of gold, to pay his expenses [-] Mr. Stone to England but Ms Stone was not able to go. He sailed about July first - Mr. Stone and Miss [Rocaf?] are in Montreal + Violet is in the county - We have had no warm weather to speak of - only a day or two. The nights are so cool that often one has to wear an overcoat. For the next few days suppose the city will be crowded as it is the week of Races at the Detroit Park, which is situated only a short distance above the Works. Today the Avenue is crowded with carriages + the cars are packed full. [-----] are at McLellan's shopping + do there intend to remain all summer. Have they decided on a site for the new Library Building? Please remember me to all enquiring friends. Hoping to hear from you again soon + that you are well. I remain your affec. son, Ralph
