Nearly 3 feet - 20 times in Lucas river
with out doing any hurt - but hopping
to make a miss step onto the hearth
in the old house which is but
4 inches lower than the floor
over went my ankle - Down
went I - & "Krack" went some
of the "twine" in my unhappy
leg - making it probable that
I must stay still a short length
of period as Frank says -
By the way said Frank has
been out lately - staid nearly
a week - He is gettg awful good -
The Roads are perfectly terrible
unparalelled kind at least
a foot deep - I dont care - I
ain't going to travel -

We did not succeed in getting
up many apple seedlg's for grafting
so I will have leisure enough
this winter - I ought to improve it.
I mean to study German some
& practice writing you well say but I am sellig in a cramped visitings
