Anna has a mountain of strength. For though she can walk to the barn and take rides on pleasant days. She can't do very much at a time without tiring her. And she is wise in not doing to get tired. I think she is quite as strong as when I was here in the fall. Our folks at home are all well. Father is not so strong since his sickness complaining a little of his back but walks to the office and to Margaret every pleasant day. He talks of coming up here bye and bye. It seems to me she raises more than she did though she does not cough any more.
