And? Paul Harvey returned from Peoria

[printed: Saturday, January 4, 1902]

Mrs Shreve Badger and little Shreve, dined at Mrs Henrys.

Today has been, sunny, and not cold?, all of us well, and still at Mrs Harveys, it is like home here, and I have a delightful room, so sunny and warm, none of my children's houses are as warm as this room, it just suits me. I being a Charleston South Carolina woman, need a great deal of warmth, they all laugh at me, but that makes unclear difference telegrams from Louisville to day are very alarming about little Shreve Ballard, he is very ill his Doctor Keller? has called in a throat Specialist, who says it is diptheria, they now have called in Another Doctor, and we are waiting for a letter. Mrs Ballard is almost insane, and Mr Ballard almost as bad. and all the family in great distress, they had such a happy Christmas.
