time next week if the weather is mild & pleasant tho' I have nt heard them say when nor heard Eliab say that they certainly should go at all -- if they go I think it will be before very long for I dont think M will keep about till March was n't you pleasd with the likeness of Lucy that Sam'l gave Charles -- He got six of them was n't he good to give us all one -- He is good I love him like an own son I have always lik'd him but he seems nearer to me since Lucy's death I wish you would write often I feel interested in every that is going on there Did n't Charles go home pretty well loaded I feel almost as well as before I was sick only not so strong I have some cough yet and pain in my right side occasion'd the Dr says by adhesion of the Lung. but I think tis getting better Eliab is very busy collecting money is not very well complaining of pain in his side and shoulder much love to you all from your Mother
