several twigs (if the tree is large) and graft the lower ends upon the tree below where it is girdled and and the upper ends above where it is girdled. The sap will ascend through them to the upper part of the tree and the wound will heal, so a nursery man told me. Vegetation here is much more forward than with you I often think of you among the snow clad hills but I suppose the snow has all disappeared now, at least I hope it has for your sakes however I enjoyed my visit there very much and only wish that I could have remained longer Will not some of you come out West and finish out the visit? How did cousin Sarah get home I hope her journey did not make her sick. I am very glad to hear by way of cousin Lizzie that Robert is better it is truly good news. Please remember me to him and to all the other cousins when you have an opportunity My acquaintance with them has been short but I do not forget them. It is nearly meal time and I must close. with much love to your self & Uncle Germain Your aff niece M. A. Roberts
