i got
your letter and you
may expect i was glad
enoughf to hear you
was as well as you are
in regard to your thumb
i think the joint will get
limber in time at any rate
you have had a pretty
serious time with it) george
wanted me to write to him
after i heard from you
i told him if it was better
i wouldent write) he went
away on tuesday morning
at half past 5 oclock he came
home on friday the 3 and staid
till tuesday he has been quite
sick some would say very
sick but he was pretty well
when he was home
all but his coughf and he
thought that was leaving
him he had a bad coughf
when he was home before
and after he went back
it grew worse and settled
in his side the first
doctor he had dident doo
him any good and then
he had another a very
good one that tended him
he had things put on his
side very powerfull he
said his side was nearly
cooked he must have been
pretty bad coughft so bad
nights but if he s carefull
he will get over it i think
if i had known it i should
have been worried enoughf
he dont think the changes
in the water department will
make any difference to him
it was one of the ring that
wanted the republicans put
out but the commisioners or
some of them wouldent
comply
walt write if you took your
new room or are you to
your old place
