Dear sister

We have not forwarded this
before for we have been waiting for the
box to come. It arrived safely of friday [FRiday]
afternoon and the contents as far as I
know are satisfactory. my hat is a little
too large in the head but I think I
can fix that by drawing the crosspiece
a little tighter. James father was not to
Church yesterday but he does not come there
much now he goes to the little Church
now for it is nearer. It is not
decided whether I am to come to your house
or not. If I do Lib will come with
me. Write so that we can get a letter
this week. I am at Mrs R. now
but expect this week will finish it.
I cannot write any more for I am only
"half alive" this morning. You may suppose
I feel like going to work. Write immediately.

'Til'
