Saratoga, March 28, 1855? What joy is mine now I have in my possession two precious letters from my dear Mary. Sarah has received 3 notes from home and a letter from unclear Seymour so she doesn't feel very bad because you have written to me twice and to her not once. O, Mary, how good your letters are. They are delicious, excellent, the genuine article. But before I write any more you will want to know how we are and feel. I will speak of Sarah first. She stood her journey full, better than she expected, has got nicely rest now, and feels perfectly at home, of course. She has had two or three sinking spels since she has been here but the Dr. proscribed some of his old unfailing fire-crackers, and they raised her up in a hurry. She was weighed Monday and so was I. Sarah weighs a few ounces over a but do not write when your head aches and do not write enough to make it ache now remember, my dear.
