Tipton June 6th 1888 Dear Aunties Jennie and Mary:

  I didn't intend to wait so long before writing again. I have been troubled a great deal with neuralgia this spring and have felt so poorly it has been hard for me to get along with my work. The neuralgia is about my heart and I can hardly breath or move when it comes on. The pain is so intense it leaves me weak, and sometimes is coming and going all day. I got some medicine of a Homeopathic doctor in Tecumseh, Dr. Jones, which helped me considerably but didn't seem to rid my system of the neuralgia. Last Friday Holden took me to see Dr. Andrews, and he gave me some medicine 

in margin my Shepherd." I hope you won't pay me in my own coin and be so long writing to me. We are always so glad to hear from you, and I want to hear from dear Aunt Anne too. How much she must miss you! Please all, include my Uncle John, accept much love from us three. Holden, Hattie and Eva
