must need rest, for the last three months has been of necessity a constant draft upon your strength the dear babies must be taken care of, but you must not do it any longer. I know how easy it is for you to go beyond your strength, & then suffer from the reaction. Isaac, you must not fail to take care of mother in the midst of your other cares & see to it that she has rest & quiet & not fatigue or excitement; had you not best come right on here just as soon as you can consistently leave Dunbarton? She can visit Warwick when she returns to New Eng. I am glad that the 'boys' are so healthy & Nettie too so well you have great reason for gratitude; How I should like to see the three babies, Nettie has her winter's work before her surely. Much love to her & kisses to the little ones I will write to her after you get here. I scribble this off hastily hoping it will reach you before you leave D. & that you will hasten on here with mother as soon as possible; I shall not feel at ease really until I see you. With much love Anna
