wishes are. I think Myron will succeed in getting a good situation as book keeper for a large lumbering establishment in the pineries. A friend of David at Chicago wrote to him about it & has strongly recommended him. We shall know in about one week. If he gets the situation I think he will do well. He is a first rate book-keeper & is very steady now. The situation is said to be a no 1 situation & I do hope he will succeed in getting it. He had the promise of a clerkship in the army but I do not want him to go into the army for he would be away from his wife & also hinder bad influences. If he goes up into the pineries he will get good pay & have his wife with him & she is exerting over him good influence. He is very diferent from what he was before his marriage. They will also get away from her folks which I think is important. How is your health now. Are you following Doct Higdays prescription. I must insist again & again upon your taking care of yourself. I cannot willingly consent to you my dear good wife neglecting to use every means in your power to be well. Tell the little boys that I want to see them very much. After greeting your dear lips with a loving kiss I bid you a sweet good night. N.K.
