S.S. Nov. 29, 1852. Dear Ma: Will you forgive me for leaving you so long without a letter? I find that it will not do for me to write a great deal, and the Dr. says I must be careful and not tax that poor weak member of mine, I must write short letters, and read only as much as I can standing and holding my book in both hands, at arm's length nearly over my head. Ask Sis to try and see how much she can read in

Have you any snow there? we have beautiful walking and delightful weather.
