Dear Dr. Van Waters,
Your letter came as I was preparing to write. I gather from it that you have had a busy time. Your card and check arrived christmas eve.It was a surprise coming so soon after the other one. I feel like a parrot thanking you so often. I spent only two dollars and have a ballance of fifteen. I am getting to be a capitalist. For some reason, hacing a little money makes me feel more like a human being. We had many good things to eat, in the all, of course.
I thought Mr. Moundins too old for that sort of thing. This may interest you: Patsy blushingly confided that she is anticipating another bundle from heaven. Our [painsethias?] were not very good. In fact, they were terrible.
About that interview, Doctor, I don't think Mrs. Sayles will visit me. She probably would if someone talked to her and explained our side of the case thoroughly, but Mr. Knight well knows that the well has been pumped dry. I feel sure I could get her good wishes if only she would come.
I am glad your little girl was home for the holidays. Don't you think there is something fascinating in opening Christmas packages? That is, unless you peek beforehand? We had lots of church, but I never attend. Miss Binford advised me to go. Perhaps I will when the new seats come. We have a new chapel, and I haven't even been inside of it.
