Bad Kissingen den July 4 /90

Verwaltung des kgl. Kurhauses. Bad Kissingen, Sen July 4th/90

Dear May,

I know you and Tim will be pleased to hear from us. We had a pleasant trip across the Ocean.

I did not at the time think so because of the fog and cold, the Capt said it was such an [sic] one as he would expect in the month of Feb. but when one reaches the end safely there is so much to be grateful for, one looks back and calls it pleasant. On our arrival at the Depot in London, my sister and Mr Hewes awaited us, which was a great pleasure to me. On our arrival at our rooms at Hotel Bristol we found them beautifully decorated with flowers and a large basket of lucious fruits in the center of dineing [sic] table the kind attention of Anna and Mr H. We left S.F. our hearts enriched with tokens of love from you Tim and others our car was a bower of rich colord [sic] flowers. When we sailed from N.Y. to my surprise

After the steamer had left the wharf, some time after, my brother came to me and said "have you been in the ladies reading room to see the wonderful flower show? There is but one other person on the steamer has more flowers there than you." I had not dreamed of such attention from anyone in N. York. Of course I hastened to find who were so kind and attentive to poor me who has done so little to endear anyone to me. It really quite overcome me at the number of pieces and so beautifully arranged. One of the most beautiful was from Mr Hubbard of the Rail Road Co. I told Mr Stanford one might suppose from looking at the display there that a belle or famous actress was leaving America. Then on arrival, this side to again find such sweet attentions has made my heart very tender very anxious to be all my dear friends expect of me and a sense of thankfulness dwells within towards my precious Saviour who opens the hearts of his children and directs that sun shine shall be mixed with the showers that develope [sic] and make us sympathetic in our loves. Make us more tolerent [sic] and forbearing with the faults of others.

This has been but one portion of our experiences. All through we have been mercifully led for we have all been passibly well. Indeed Mr Stanford and I wonderfully rested and better in health.

We staid [sic] in London three days to visit with Anna two days in Paris, and then on here. Where we have been three weeks last night. Mr Nash parted from us at Paris, for a months visit with his parents at Nice. He started yesterday on his return, and we expect him Sunday. Mr Stanford began the cure immediately on his arrival as to drinking the waters bathing or dieting he has obeyed every rule rigedly [sic] and he told me this morning he was weighed and had cost seven lbs of flesh he walks three and four miles each day. And he is cheerful and content with the result of the regime I think if Mr Stanford could make up his mind to lay aside all business political and otherwise, and care only for the University and could stay away one year, travel and rest do just as fancy might dictate he would be perfectly well and might be able in this way to live very many more years of useful life
