is Father doing? I am afraid the times are treating him pretty shabbily, judging from the receipts on cover of last ?. I wish I could send him thirty dollars every month, but must wait awhile for that. Times are very hard in New York. Most every body is complaining (excepting myself!)

Mrs. P.P. P. says I will have to write to Father to omit sending the two Mos. for which she was going to try & get subscribers in place of the two who had given it up. She has failed in her efforts. Mr. ? is very feeble. I was in on Sat. He was dressed that day for the first time in two weeks. His face is about as small as Father's & you know that is a great change for him.

Please write how you felt after you last meal.
