Remsen, Apr. 29, 1885.

Dear Sister,

Your letter was very welcome Sat. evening. We shall be glad to have you home but do not wish you to hurry yourself and come before you get ready. A cold wave has come again and we are glad of fires and winter clothing. The snow is nearly all gone and the ground is drying fast. Yesterday we had some rain, with a strong chilly wind from the south east. today the wind has been more north west. I go to the village every day so we did not wash today and perhaps will leave it this week. The work on the Cenhadwr is progressing and we hope the number may be got out this week--perhaps Saturday.

Anna lamed her foot Friday--slipped in the yard by going to the chickens. It almost made her sick--but she is getting over it
