New York Mills Feb. 27 '76 Dear Cousin Jennie, Am sorry to be obliged to open my letter to you with an apology. As Grandma asked me to answer your kind letter I intended to answer immediately. But day after day passed and each with its hindrances until a week has gone by. Your letter was very welcome read with interest by all and Grandma is very grateful for the photographs. We think them perfect. You must indeed be very lonely without dear Uncle

leave home. We know that you are very much occupied but hope you will be able to take a rest occasionally. Will be glad to hear from you again. Lovingly yours Mrs. Josie Hughes
