Hillsdale, Michigan, August 22nd, 1879 Dear Aunt Jennie: I have been meaning to write to some of you for a long time but one thing after another has kept me busy. Lizzie sent us two photographs of little Everett and wanted us to send you one so here it is. Isn't he a splendid boy? I want to kiss his fat cheeks, and I think I will before very long too as I expect now to go east next week. I have only decided since last night

in margin: -giving time. I hope you are all well. Can't some of you plan to come back with me in the fall? How is dear Aunt Sarah? I think of her so often. I am in hock? and will leave the other half check for father.

Lovingly, Hattie
