i got your
letter on saturday and got
those you sent through the
week i am pretty well except
a bad cold was hoarse this
morning but am somewhat
better now Jeff left the pills
and i think i will take some
to night to see if it wont break
up my cold i had a hurried
letter from jeff last week
he says after living upside
down for some weeks they
have concluded to stay where
they are and the house is
being fixed all nice that
matty is quite smart and things
goes on very good in his
department) minne marys
daughter
and her husband
called here last saturday
afternoon they were married
on wensday
they are stopping
at st nicholus s hotel
new york
and on saturday evening
helen price came here and
and
stayed till yesterday sunday
her mother is quite complaining
with her old complaint they
think rather hard of your not
writing to them as her mother wrote
to you while she was in the country
and never heard if you ever
received it)
well walt i beleive
i will write the annoyances
i had last week the first was
little georgeys coming here
and wanted money for his
mother i give him a little change
and as i supposed he wanted
it for himself as edd said
he had a boy waiting for him outside
loo wanted me when she was here
to find out when jims birth day
was so i wrote a little note and
sent it by george for nanc
to
write it down and i beleive
it was the next day nanc sent
a boy here with a letter and
said she was on the street
the night before and dreadful
to read) the boy said it was a
strange boy she said he must
wait for an answer i told
the boy i was sorry for her but
i had no money to help her
she said in the letter i could take
george if i wanted too
so saturday night georgey
came again after money
he was very ragged but
i had none to give i think
he is very bad boy indeed
i think the saturday night he
wanted it for himself)
well after i had been so
annoyed with the letter and
georgey s coming) i had a
letter from mr Heyde
he had said in a former letter
he was going to dispose of some
pictures at montreal he said this
in his last letter he hadent
sold them yet he was waiting
to hear more particulars
and that he had got 150 dollr
from the bank and gave his note
for three months and if he
had to take up any more money
he should come strait to
brooklyn) well walt i
had to laughf i thought
that was worse than nanc
i dont suppose he had any
idea of coming but it seemed
to me so rediculous he dident
say whether he was coming
to live on me or what
he was going to doo
he said han was very well
now he wants her to come
here he says) i dont pay
any attention to his rediculous
writings) O walt i like to forget
i got Lady Judith and i get
all the papers you send
and all the money and it
comes very good sometimes
i tell you my dear Walt
dont worry walt about
my trouble with nance and
georgey it did make me
feel bad and sorry for
her but perhaps there was
no truth in it
this is quit a letter walt
good biethe weathe is almost to warm here
