There is so much whole heartedness about it; that it did [across top] excuse this hasty note, & be sure & let me know when Fred will come South. Ed sends love & [unclear] & the [unclear] here is good, & if you come you will have a warm welcome. With love I remain your affection sister Annie {unclear} Excuse the paper as I am out, & must use Ed's.
