Kankakee May 24, 1871 My dear husband It is half past 6 o’clock so I only have time to write a word or two tonight. This has been a lonely day to me I have had a headache and it has been so warm I have not had much strength and I feel tired tonight. Artie is well as when you left he coughed some last night but not more than he has done. I gave him aconite and a drink of water and it relieved him in a short time. This does not seem much like the anniversary of my birth and wedding day. I hope you got down there well and will be home soon as possible. It seems lonely enough when you are away.
