children & find that you are necessary for my happiness & yes I cannot be happy you unless I feel sure you are contented & happy with me. I will do the best I can to make you contented & happy there, but you must do the best you can to make me as to enable me to be successful in making you so. I will "gather & twine into a garland of love" all the "Roses of bliss & the Roses of Paradise" you scatter around our home & will place that garland lovingly upon your own dear head. It will take me till about the first of May to get through here. Will you be through with your visit by that time & will you be ready then to return to our prairie home, & to the warm loving embrace of your husband in the sunshine of his love be contented & happy there & help him by words & sets of love
