Hillsdale, Mich, Nov 1 1886 Dear Aunt Jennie and all It seems quite a long time since we have had a letter from you though we have heard indirectly through John and Azia. Anna and I took a walk yesterday afternoon through the lane and towards the cemetary. It was very pleasant and I thought how you would enjoy these lovely days. We have had a great deal of pleasant weather this Fall. Today it is almost as warm as summer. Our geraniums are out enjoying the sunlight. We have not had frost enough yet to injure them. I am planning to go down town this afternoon, You will be glad to know that Anna goes to church almost every Sunday so we can all go, except for a few Sundays past, no children have gone to church for fear of the diptheria, so Claire
