I certainly believe it would meet her case. Give her lots of love from me. Much love also to Aunt Sarah. I am glad to hear she is so much better. Poor little Franky. I hope he is better, but his head is so large I fear a disease of the brain will go hard with him. Tell Eddie to be sure & write as soon as the Cen. is out. I have neglected to tell you, but must now. Little Henry is dead. He died while I was at home. His disease worked around to the spine, and they could do no more for him. After the doctors decided that they could do no more for him the overseers of the poor, thinking though they had paid but two dollars a week for him here, that he could be kept cheaper there removed him to the hospital in Utica, where he died. The little fellow begged to stay, and Dr. Holland offered to keep him while he lived

but they thought best to remove him.  He lived but a little while after his removal.
