Dear Annie,
  Last evening after Cynthia and I had sent a joint letter to the office for you, we received the last one you wrote. I think it was a fine idea of yours thus to pay up your letter debts all with one letter, tho' of course I think my own way a little better. I dont very often stop to think whether I owe you a letter or not; if I feel like writing or if I've any news, I get my folio and commence a letter. Now, tonight, it seems to me that perhaps a letter may do you a little good, your last does not sound as tho' it was written in the best of spirits. I am very sorry.

Dear Annie,

  Last evening after Cynthia and I had sent a joint letter to the office for you, we received the last one you wrote. I think it was a fine idea of yours thus to pay up your letter debts all with one letter, tho' of course I think my own way a little better. I dont very often stop to think whether I owe you a letter or not; if I feel like writing or if I've any news, I get my folio and commence a letter. Now, tonight, it seems to me that perhaps a letter may do you a little good, your last does not sound as tho' it was written in the best of spirits. I am very sorry.

in margin in and spoke to me but I never looked for his wife or asked him about her thinking she was talking with her uncles. Of course he stood right by him, but I did not see her till he said "Mrs. Jones, Miss Everett." It was not Minnie, I could not say any thing for a minute and then I had to laugh to see Messrs Y.U. and J.D. sneak off. It was too good a story to keep. I had to tell it explain my strange greeting, Minnie had been bride'smaid and thence the mistake probably. With much love from Jenni
