Remsen, N.Y. Aug 7th/93 Monday P.M. Dear Sister; I have commenced on the wrong part of the sheet, but you will excuse. Frank called this morning + asked if I wanted anything from the village as he was going with wagon. So I sent for a couple gallons of oil, two cans tomatoes + a can corned beef. I was very glad of the lift as such things are heavy to carry. Jane has said that they would bring up for me anything that I wished at any time. Jane has gone this P.M. to the funeral of Mr. Prichard of Martinsburg, our former neighbor (Fuller's place) He has been sick a long time, with a tumor on his side.

in margin: by the mill, also the calls on Mrs. Forsythe & Mrs. Whitney, but was very kind in Mrs. Gladwin to offer to take you to Mrs Stevens some time. Please give love to all the friends. Wish I could have helped eat that ice cream. I got down at Syracuse on my way home which was very nice. Twas there about noon. Maggie has done well with the canvassing. Have you sent another order yet? You are making a beginning, and who can tell what great results will come? How are you progressing with the Holly wreath? I am glad the berries are all right.
