Dear Sister Sarah,

I don't know what to tell you, but I must write a letter. How do you do, and Mary too. I wish that I could see you both. Cynthia is writing to Elisabeth. Anna is writing to you and Thomas T. Jones, Esq is translating. He wants me to tell you what Lewis calls Know nothings in which it is Durrinddimiaid. Franky has been sick with the croup. He has not got over it yet. It is getting late. It is half apast 8 so good night now lets take a bite, that's a rhyme.

Wednesday -- Anna and Sis have got through their letters and I am left behind to finish mine. Tell Mary I sent that Battle of the Alma. How soon do you expect to come home. I send you what verses we found on the last three subjects. Lewis has four singing schools one in Penymynydd one in Betheb one in Remsen Babtist church & Rapel Aloha
