Remsen. Feb. 20, 18unclear My dear Sisters,

  We were very glad to receive your letter this morning, John Eddie; Cynthia and I went down to the village hoping to get some news about you coming home. It seems so long since Anna went that we were almost sorry she is not comming yet, still if her visit is doing her good she had better stay as long as it continues to do so (if she wishes to) and when she does come home, may she be extra good. We shall be very glad to see Sara tomorrow night - if all is well, Robbie will be at the depot to meet her. 

Tell Sara Symon that I like the penswiper she sent me very much indeed it is very pretty and then it is so soft and nice I want to thank her every time I use it which is pretty often. Mother sends you $5 in this lest you should be short. Hope it will go safely.
