February 10, 1853 Dear Anna, You will forgive me I am sure for not answering your kind letter before, when I tell you I have been sick, & could not write I am under a thousand obligations to you for remembering me so kindly. I know you would write very often if you knew what pleasure it gave me to receive that I thought I was not entirely forgotten. Is Sarah getting any better? I am in hopes she will write and tell me just how she is when she feels strong enough. I wish she could be here with me.
