I have not heard from you in some time  Please write to me and let me hear how mother is  The last letter I
had from you stated you would write to me every week  That has been three weeks ago  Let me know how
you all are  I got a letter from Josh Ferrell a day or two ago  He wants to come back to Va  I have been
troubled with the rheumatism for too weeks so that I can hardly get about though I have been attending to
my business all the time but it is about all I can do  I have got the Widow Toombs staying at my house
Been there four weeks  Lizzie has gone to housekeeping three weeks today
