Dear Mary
  I should have written you long ago but I have been waiting for some "Lady Like" Stationery which I just got at the Boston Store. Any how Mary I always like your letters & wish I could write one like them but I cant. There are other things that I can do better than write letters. I really wish I was there if I could come & only see you & Sarah & Lem & Older
&  Jo and Mrs Jo. & a few others I would come but could possibly cut out all but you.
 Am busy in a strike case in fact I have been busy all the time of late - strikes & murders & ? keep me going. Get a little chance to make a speech once in a while and now
