Dear Sister Mary,

  I don't know as I have any thing very particular to write but I thought perhaps you would like to get a letter before Sunday.  William is pretty comfortable for him today.  He had the asthma very badly Sat. and Sunday indeed, he has been sick every Sunday since we have been here and he is generally better towards the middle of the week.  He has not been to church at all and I have been but once, the first Sunday after we came.  I wish we could have a talk with you and get your sisterly and doctorly advise as to what we had 

along the top of page good only I have been having a good deal of pain in my teeth and my head. I think I wrote that I had had my teeth filed. It was a week ago today and I took cold in them walking home through the cold wind. They have pained me very much at times especially night. I slept better last night, and have much less pain today so I hope I have got nearly over it. Please write as soon as you can. E. is very anxious to know what you think of her. She has a great dread of being helpless and dependent . Do you think the climate has anything to do with it. Love to all specially? 3 words unclear

S.E.P. & W.R.P.
