We wrote a letter to Henry which we expect will go out tomorrow morn. We also sent out your journal and a letter to Nettie. Hope you will receive it. Mary has been quite busy sewing on her berage-delaine dress. She has got it most finished. I have been working on a bag. Not very literary I suppose you think though quite necessary for would-be women. I can write no more now. Thurs. 3: All our energy has been necessary to carry us through the duties of this very sultry day. This afternoon has been quite showery. The grass and trees seem to have been newly painted green. What other color would they have been likely to have chosen? I have just returned from my walk it was a delightful one I assure you. So much pleasanter after the parching sand has been moistened. Mary and Mary Anne accompanied me. We saw many things to admire. One was a beautiful tree which Mary called a "maiden tree" it looked so pure and fresh. I stopped a moment to analize a flower which Mary brought in and then the milk-man came bring two boys a dog and forty qts of milk. It is no so dark that I can scarcely see. I have been quite busy today trying to copy some questions on Milton for John in addition to my other duties. Our weekly meetings were this eve. Mary feels quite nicely today. She did not study yesterday.
