My precious mother -

I am not
certain as this letter will reach
thee - we expected to hear from
thee last 7th day night - when
to look for thee - how - and
where thee was - &c - hope the
is well - and that we shall
see thee [underline]soon[/underline], as last of this
week. They are all well up
home - Jamie and Elsie
went to Plainfield yesterday -
Uncle Timothy rather grows
worse - has those spells oftener
and more violent - has
tried once or twice to choke
aunt P. How much like
grandmother - should think
they would have to confine
him. We are well - Horace
has gone to Bradford to at-
tend a Masonic celebration
