Hillsdale College, Hillsdale, Mich., Jan. 5, 1877 Dear Friends, I have this morning brought up a letter from Jennie to Sarah, and we are very glad to learn that Mother seems to be getting along so well. She must have a great deal of natural rigor. Hope she is over the worst of it. Also we are happy to hear that Anna is better, and the rest of you so well. You must have had a pretty hard winter so far. We have about a foot of snow and good sleighing. Considerable cold weather, but only once or twice down to zero. We wish we could report more formally than we can. Elizabeth continues about the same, we hope she is not getting worse. Rubbing seems to do her the most good. We hope
