although i have had
a pretty hard day yet i felt as if
i wanted to write a line before i went
to bed although i am very tired indeed
well Walt Jeffy and matty
has started to night for st lou is they
are to stop to pittsburgh for a day and
a night matty was about the same
she cant doo much as soon as she does
any thing in the way of housework
she vomits up all she eats she
is far from well but the doctor speaks
encouragely of her but O walt
haint i had a seige they pretended
to live up stairs but the provitions
was prepared down well Walter dear
i have lived through it) but some
things i have thought rather hard
of they have never paid a cent of
rent nor a cent of gass bill nor give
me a dollar when they went away
they gave me an allapacca dress when
they first came and Jeff bought
me a little mite of a castor that is all
about three weeks ago george
bought 20lb of butter and they have used
out off it ever since and matty borrowed
50 dollars of george but jeffy dident
settle it) they had plenty of money
as jeffy drawed that out off the bank
i did really think they had ought to
give me some but let evey thing
go but i would ask more than 100 dl
to go through the same again)
