Hillsdale, Michigan, January 2nd, 1877 My Dear Aunt Jennie: -

    I have a letter commenced to you in my writing desk, dated December 28th, but I can't finish it for the last sentence written is only just begun and I can't think for my life what it was I was going to say! So you see I have made a new start. Whether I am able to finish this with out interruption, I do not know now as well as you will when you receive it.      The only thing of importance that I said in the unfinished sheet was that I could not tell how it happened that I had left your last letter so long unanswered, and come to consider it, that was not of much importance either, for it would be hard for anyone to tell 

written across the top: none sure, and when I do write I at least have the pleasure of expecting an answer, whether it comes or not. We all sympathize very much with Grandma, I do hope she will be more comfortable soon- Aren't you all tired of the cold weather? Michigan is the state for me! With much love to all, and especially yours lovingly,

Hattie
