Dear Sister Cynthia,

Lissie says I may write to you a little too. She was greatly pleased to get your letter and would have written before were it not for her school. But now she has vacation she has more time, and she often wishes you were here. She thinks she should take so much comfort, though she says sometimes she is afraid Cynthia would not like her so well as she used to. Ellen Sibley is home now. Came home last Friday to spend vacation. She is still teaching in Boston. She has a very good place there and does well. I have not seen her since she came home. Everything is looking very pleasant now. The farmers are
