Catherine has writin al the news perty much we
Are all well and I hope you are the same. I have
Had the fever and ague and all the childern and
They look very pale they have had three attacks
A peccee but I have had the doctor and he has cure
It once or twice bit I hope they will get over it they
Talk a great deal about you they want you to come
Home and bring some candy Betsy has not got over
her Conplaint yet and I am afraid she never will
Amos is well I doe not feel very strong my self

Hey ? why the S and J hope they will have good luck
They have not begun their harvest yet but they say

Back again I have to buy her twelve shilings a weak
But I think it cheaper at that she is study and
Trusty Phil was a goodeal like lewese here folks

No trobel every thing look very fine we have lead
Of great many strawberies and we all wished you roses
Hear to help eat some of them. I got your leter and
Was glad to hear that you was well and hoped you
Would return but fel in hopes that it will turn out
For the best tht we none of us can tell their will
Be a great many changes in the course of a yeare or tew
