Dear Daughter how did you get home why haven't you let us know, & whether you found Sam'l alive and well, and whether he was glad to see you I've a lot of things I want to say to you that I ought to have said when you were here but forgot besides a great many that have occur'd to me since but I cant think of any thing that is just right to say now, or cant think of it, I'm so confus'd with finishing off four other letters for Jese and me

C. handed you 3,00 with which I believe they want you to get 20 yds, 4 cloth, 6" good for shirts with linen (4 or 5' yds)- skein unbleach'd threat & shirt buttons, also Table Cloth & crash if convenient for you to get them and if it was not to much plague Eliab so when he has so much to see to I should want you to get some a little money which will be to C's Albinas credit for eggs and get a 1/2 doz knives & forks she needs 'em but no matter you all have enough else to do or ought to have

ya I want 10 yds of the 4 cent Cotton Cloth so you had better get a whole piece Do write often I want to know how you get along everyday
