Granby Conn Sept 23 1873 Dear Sister Abbie: Emily has returned from Europe. She is here. She got here the 11th of Sept - Ever since she came I've tried and tried, to write and tell you - but we get to talking and away goes the time. When, I received your letter last Thursday I thought I would certainly send a letter the next mail, and here it is Tuesday morning - and I've got up before any one else and set right down to write you - So I shall not miss the chance of sending to-day. written down left and top of page
