  11 Nov. 1868 My dear Walter

i got both of your letters one the last of last week and the other on monday i got one from Heyde yesterday tuesday) saying hannah was improving but had a bad thumb but no fever i think its pretty hard to tell how she is by his letters but i think she must be quite smart he said she had the girl that they had when i was there she was very good and thought very much of han and will doo   very well for her i make no doubt)

well walter dear we are getting along quite smart matty is improving but far from well the doctor is doctoring her throat with great sucsess i think he has performed two moderate opperations on her throat) but O dear if you could hear her talk it would make me hoarse to talk a steady stream as she does when any one comes in to see her i dread to see any one come in i talk   and talk to her but it does no manner of good she gets almost offended at me Perbasco was here the other evening and staid quite late and the way mats toung went it certainly would have made me have had the headach to have talked such a length of time steady but so it is she went out the other day i said dont go to any place but i knew in reason she would so she went to saywards and stayed till dark   it was real chilly when she com i said martha if ever any one tryed to not get well i think you doo so that night she raised some blood not much but it frightened her staid and talked till it got so late and then walked fast home that was the cause of it when we doo every thing to have her comfortable it makes me real out of patience) Edd has been quite sick with billious attack but is so he does a little now but looks very bad) off george has got a draw of the two houses they talk of building he got the furniture insured to day for 400 dollars
