i am like
you this week i dont seem
to have any thing new to write
i have not had any word
from st lou is nor han nor
george since he went away
i got your letter all safe
tuesday
was glad to hear
you had such good times
getting such nice breakfasts
and teas) i hope i shall
hear from matty before i
write again i dont think
its good to have her coughf
stop so suddenly poor matt
i hope she may live to
bring up her children)
i have been in the house
so much i thought i would
go out and get in the cars
and so i went up to spencer
st and called on mrs moore
samuel moores mother
you
remember they lived in the
big house with us a while
they own their house seem
to live very comfortably
samues still is in the Jewelry
business the old man is out
the navy yard this long time
the worst of it was they had
two dogs and before they could
get them away i thought they
would have torn my gown
off of me first one jumped
up on me and then the other
finally the old man had
to take them by the neck and
legs and put them out in
the yard the old man and
mrs more wished to be
remembered to all of you
boys) i see the death of mrs
fleet Johns mother
they
lived on the south side
where she died) there is quite
a stir about the small pox
ordering every one to be
vasinated) well walter dear
my sheet is nearly filled
so i must say good bie
i get so lame every time i go out if it wasent for that i should feel quite smart
