Your good letter was very welcome as I should have told you upon its reception. Time and thoughts are so freely occupied that letter writing is Tues. evening -- I must not leave you longer without a line -- The weather makes us in a measure indolent. Today is a home July day -- but forever a week previous the weather has been charmingly cool. To be sure I still slept with all windows open -- but was never uncomfortably warm. Now I am constantly in a perspiration My health is still good, and my work delightful. My boys ?
