Chicago May 7, Wednesday afternoon 1851
My Dear Wife.
After leaving home on Saturday I arrived in Niles about ten oclock where I spent the Sabbath preaching in the forenoon for Mr. Colton and in the afternoon for Mr. Bryant found our friends tolerably well. Came on in the cars Monday evening and Tuesday morning waked up in Chicago. I am now at Bro. Pattersons. Should have gone today towards Beloit, but found that if I started today I should be detained one day at Rockford on the way I besides I feel considerably not well this forenoon. Feel much better however this afternoon and intend, providence permitting to start for Beloit tomorrow morning going by rail-road to Elgin and thence by stage. Brother Patterson informed me that there are two churches one at Burlington & the other at Pikes-Grove near Racine where it is desired to get in a Presbyterian minister. If I can ascertain that I would probably avail anything, I shall make it in any way to assist them. I hardly know as yet whether I shall go after getting to Beloit. I shall feel anxious to hear from you. Be so good as to write me immediately at Beloit. Direct a letter to me also at Chicago, care of Rev. R. W. Patterson, and I shall probably get one of them without much delay. Bro. Patterson has written letters of inquiry for me to Galena and to Glovet of Jacksonville, and is going the latter part of this week to Milwaukee and will ascertain in regard to that region, so that if there is any place for me. I shall probably find where it is ere long. And yet from what I am able as yet to learn, I have not very confident anticipation. Don't fail to let me hear from you. I shall expect at accounts to find a letter when I return to this place. Don't give yourself any uneasiness about me. Trust in the Lord and enjoy yourself as well as you can. Tell Mary her Father talks of sending a dress &c when I return she can't conveniently come out just now unless it is necessary. Kiss the children for me. Yours in love,
Robert McMath.
