Remsen, Dec. 14, 1868. My dear Sisters, We send this morning with Lewis that little bowl of jelly — mother thinks we cannot well send a larger one in that satchel. Last Saturday we made some more jelly, preserved some pumpkins and pickled some — We have not yet had those citron Mrs. Evans kindly sent us by Lewis - but they are safe at his house and we thank Mrs. E. very much for them. We will send for them soon as we seasoned the others with lemon & should like to try hard ginger with these, and if you can get us some (white and nice like what ma got once you know)

in top margin: Sarah and I both need some warm winter gloves and I thought some like Cynthia's mittens would be nice - if you see some, price them, and let us know.

 We would like to know whether Mr. Hugh Williams has paid Mr. Evans anything - father sent word for him to do so if he had any money received for Cenhadwr - also how much we are owing still for your board - we do not remember just when you went down - can you give us the date? Pa send in this $10 for Mr. E and $5 for you - I fear I have not sent you enough for the things you are to get for me, let me know about that.
