My dear Mother,
My dear Mother,
I am sorry I have been so very negligent in writing home. I hope you have not been anxious about us, though I know you are lonely there and I ought and meant to have written after on that account. I was so homesick last week that I hardly knew what to write. I feel a good deal better now but we have been very busy since [[unclear]] went away. Mary and I have had our hands full. She will probably get some one again soon. I am not strong enough to do the work and it is too hard for Mary, it takes too much of her time.

My dear Mother,

  I am sorry I have been so very negligent in writing home. I hope you have not been anxious about us, though I know you are lonely there and I ought and meant to have written after on that account. I was so homesick last week that I hardly knew what to write. I feel a good deal better now but we have been very busy since Hatie went away. Mary and I have had our hands full. She will probably get some one again soon. I am not strong enough to do the work and it is too hard for Mary, it takes too much of her time.
