My dear Auntie Stan-

I was so shocked to hear of poor Mrs Hewe's death. It was most unexpected for in her last letters, mamma never seem -ed to lose hope of her recovery-

It will be a great grief to you, for we all know how devoted you have always been to your sister, and how kind and good to her in her illness.

I presume you and Governor will be

returning home soon now, and if you will only write me a line either here or to the Renaissance 6 West 43rd St. I will come to town to see you. I missed you in Paris unfortunately, not having heard of your being there until the night before you left. I called, but you were out with Jennie.

With best love to yourself and the Governor believe me very affectionately yours

Louise LaMontagne

Mrs. Mc Kenzie S.F. -- Oct. 1892 (condolence on Anna Hewes)
