Transcript	Brandon Mississippi April 19, 1860 Mr. Hardy You cannot judge of my surprise at the contents of your last letter. I say surprise because I had never thought of you in any other light but as a friend. I have given the subject of your letter the thought and consideration that is due to a matter of so much importance, but as yet I am unprepared to give a decided answer although our acquaintances have been of some length, but I think we ought to know each other better than we now do. Circumstances have been such that we are as yet comparatively strangers. The exchanging of sentiments and expressions of feeling upon paper is not a very satisfactory method of knowing each other’s dispositions therefore I think we should see more of each other, I would be glad to see you if convenient before I leave for Tennessee. Your friend, Sallie Johnson
