Hillsdale College building--image Treasurer's Office, Hillsdale, Mich., January 12th, 1882 My Dear Aunt Jennie:

  We intended to have written before this, but time has passed more swiftly than we thought. We feel very anxious for Aunt Sarah, but keep hoping to hear more favorably of her condition. This is a very trying winter, for everyone, but especially it must be so for one so weak. Tell her not to give up, the winter is half gone, and the spring will bring new strength and hope. We have heard nothing of Aunt Mary for a long time. What is her address now? Someone told Lizzie that she had moved from 433 W. 34th St. Is her health better than it has been, and is she doing well? Tell me all about her, please. I don't think much of losing track of one of my own Aunties. I should like to ask her if she knows anything of Dr. Goodman, oculist, of Philadelphia.
