Mary Doddridge (cousin), Northampton, to Mercy Doddridge, Sr. [ Tewkesbury], Sr., 3 February 1773.

This letter does not appear to be complete. She is answering a New Year's letter from Mercy. She believes God has been very gracious to her over the years, "from my Birth & from that time to the present moment Goodness and Mercy" has followed her "all along the wilderness" of this life. Mr. Remington has died "in peace" leaving Mrs. Remington on her own now. Miss Remington sends her regards.
