Hudson Mass. Jan 27. 1869. My dear Sister Abby: I could'nt get your letter ready for last Sat. as you probably expected, because I had, just before I received your received one from Emily in which she told me that Mary's school was going to close in two or three weeks and she wanted I should write a dialogue and a single piece, for her scholars to recite at the examination. So I felt that I must write those first or they would'nt have time to learn them I composed a dialogue for two boys and two girls on Character, and a single piece for a Closing Address and put them in the Office Sunday noon when we went up to church, so you see I didn't have time to write yours but I guess you'll get it by next Saturday - I was glad enough to get such a timely reply and each a good definite account of yourselves and your Kankakee home. I think written down left and top of page I have'nt time to read this over; if there are any mistakes excuse them - all write soon - Chandler will write to Mr Kendall soon - but I did not write - because I thought you'd be disappointed if I did - I am glad Eddie goes to school - I'm glad to hear from Old Prince and glad to know you have some more domestic animals reserved Whose dog is Dash I like the name -
