Kiowa, Kan, Feb 1, 1897. My Dear Aunts
Aunt Mary's letter of Jan'y 28. came today at noon. It was postmarked at Remsen Jan 29, 9 AM. The children are much pleased with their letters. Roberts is hardly critical enough as yet to understand the merit of Aunt Mary's poetry but if we can keep it for him, he may be some day. Ella writes hopefully from Chicago. She is given a colonic flushing every day, and she thinks her bowels are beginning to act. the Doctor says that that treatment is bound to bring them to act, so she wrote in her last received today. She seems to be taking very little medicine. All
sideways at top: Ella Woods that she received a letter from you which cheered her up. She also received one from Hattie I think the same day.
