the letter. My heart sank within for some days when I found there was no letter, for Sarah I loved you with a sisters love. I sometimes almost wish I were not so constituted, as to form such ardent attachments. Still I do not wish so, for it is a source of great pleasure as well as pain. I am glad to hear of the recovery of Mrs Burch and I have had opportunity to recommend Dr Graf several times since my return home, and I do not fail to do it, whenever opportunity offers. My health improves so rapidly as could be expected, with my cares and responsibilities. I have gained much in flesh, and youth, and spirits, although I am now at times considerably nervous. I am now teaching a small school in one of my rooms, of 13 or 15 scholars, four hours a day. This together with the cares of my family exhausts my strength, from day to day, but I hope not to more than exhaust it. That is, not to go beyond my strength. I do very little else that is wearing.

  I have a dear girl (Sarah) in my school, upon who I lavish as much affection as I did
