My dear friend Edith:

I really
do wish you a happy New Year
if I am late. I could not
write sooner on account of
my son's illness. He is better
now, had pneumonia gets
well very slowly. I know
how busy you are so I will
excuse you. I wonder where
you are now. It must be terrible
to suffer so much physically,
as well as mentaly. I am sorry
you can not visit me sooner
