it dont seem as if we had been here one whole month matt says one month of the
twelve is gone i got your letter
Walt yesterday with 3 dol in all right and very glad to have it i suppose you
are at mrs grasons yet how is the old lady i suppose she is as usuall or you would have written we all remain here yet and i
suppose we shall for there dont seem to be any places and if there was i
dont think i could undergo the mooving operations again i like it better here now we have got
kind of stoed away a little more if i had one more room but i might
as well wish for a whole house so i will be content if i could only rest but that
seems almost impossible the going up and down stairs tires me more than it ever did
matty says it tires her too so i think they must be hard stairs the water is no
where but in the basement and no way to get in the yard but down the basement i tell
mat i shall be favorable to water-closets after this) we pay 15 dollars a month about the worth of the
whole house george has paid the rent he
dont like it very well here its so far for him to come i dont know what his ideas are probably he will get married
who its too we dont know but he appears to be very much taken with some
one i said something to him about it the other day partly in joke and
partly in earnest he said he dident know but he should when he got time he has got to be
very economicall very different from when he was in the army but
every body changes some for the better and some for the worser)
Mr Davis is appointed chief engineer of the prospect park with a good salary i think now Jeff will build on his own lot a brick house) i feel better than i have felt only very lame otherwise i am much better Dr ruggles was here last sunday he goes to the country to vermont this week the children is extremely well mat has has very much to doo she is going to have a girl to work give my best respects to mr and mrs Oconor and mrs mix
