May 25 - Tuesday night [1927]
[Sarah W Stockley] [Avon Park Fl]
Dear Mrs. Walden:
Francis went from town immediately
after breakfast this morning and returned with your letter. It was surely a satisfaction to get it. I was feeling restless about "mother" and had made up my mind to go down this afternoon and call at your home and see what the folks there could tell me. That was a dreadful trip for mother to have to take in a Ford - weak as she is. I had no idea Highlands was so far from RR. Had it in my mind as a drive of 5 or 10 miles. If she gets over that alright, I think she has vitality and grit enough to get well. I look for her back with us in September - good for another decade or more. Mrs Ten Eyc's mother will be 80 in September. She set off on the noon train today for Newark alone. We went over Monday evening to say goodbye to her. She looked as happy and talked as unconcernedly about her journey as if she were forty. Mr and Mrs Ten Eyck will not go north until the last days of August. Indeed Mr Ten Eyck looked [unclear] like he would go the way of all the earth long before the last days of Aug- was having a struggle to keep up inspiration. The Boys are gone Tonight - Byrum to his military doings and Francis to the Alumni banquet at Byrd Lodge. We are getting some more hot weather - yesterday PM, it was 102 on our north porch for two or three hours. It keeps threatening rain but we get little more than the promise. I am surely glad you and mother are there - situations have grown more and more
