Eat like young horses or pigs. They "Eat all that is set before them" at the table; and fruit as they can get it. Charlies usual salutation to me is "Papa, Gim napp'l." Baby too seems very well; Bowels in good condition, eats well, sleeps well & good natured. We have frequent showers since you left. It rained part of last night & till 10 this morning when it cleared off so pleasantly that those who went to Church did not think of umbrellas. But before 12 oclock it was raining again smartly! By 2 P.M. it cleared off again beautifully so we went to our Down Plank S.S. and had a good school; but before we got through, it was closely clouded again, though it has not rained much yet.
