Dear Jamie,

  We received your letter giving an account of that terrible storm and intended to have answered it immediately bur Nellie was taken sick, and I was most sick with toothache &c, so that we had but very little time to write. Thank you very much dear sister, for writing so soon. For it was precious to hear from you at your safety. Poor Anna, I had thought of her a great deal, she is always so timid when it thunders. May our good God preserve and
