Francisco day before yesterday from Elliot of he Engineers dated February 27th in which he says he has heard that Scott was sick with the diphtheria.

It was a very sudden death of Williams and now I hope Scott will be able to get that place. [?] place I heard was promised to a Capt Foster of the Q.M.D.

Emma and the children are well and send much love. I think of going in to New York next week and stopping at the farm on my return. That is if I can get M Passe on the Rail Roads. John Weir has finished his great picture for which I hear he is to have $6000 and he is to be married to Miss Mary French the middle of May. Ned must be with you about this time. Give my love to all at home. Your affectionate son Thos Lincoln
