American Friend, December 24, 1819
On the 17th July I landed at Baltimore, from England, with a part of my family and immediately started for the western country. My son William Collis started at the same time for Pittsburgh, and we parted on our journey thence. After waiting at Pittsburgh some time, I left that place for Marietta, Ohio, where I now reside, waiting intelligence from my son, whom I have not since heard from and do not know where he is. If he is yet alive he will find me at Marietta, Ohio, to which place he is requested to write me immediately.
William Collis

Printers throughout the states of Ohio and western part of Virginia will confer a favor on me by giving the above a few insertions.
