My Dear Daughter

      It is as much as three long weeks since we heard from you what can be the reason we are very anxious, I think we wrote twice last week, and sent Elizabeth's letter to Cynthia, have not written to Elizabeth till we hear from you Mary says she thinks you are preparing for examination, but we fear you are sick if so let us know and let us know the whole, will not some one open your letters and write us, I would not tax you with a long letter if you are crowded 

It is a long time since we heard from John we can not account for their silence, Mary's health is improving Sarah is rather feeble
