Dr Sir,
About four weeks ago I sent you a note respecting my Tales of the F. Club [[Tales of the Folio Club]], and matters have since occurred to me that make me doubt whether you have recd. [[received]] it. You would confer upon me the greatest favour by dropping a few words for me in the P.O.
Very respy
Edgar Allan Poe
Jno. P. Kennedy, Esqr.

Notes:
“Very respy” is a common abbreviation for “Very respectfully,” appearing in Poe's letters with some frequency.
