for you without her and you were not able to walk to cousin's. Dr. is a little uneasy about your cough. He says he is sorry he did not have you take another vapor bath. Can you not do it now at home? You know how it was done and with Mary for M.D. there would not be much difficulty only be careful to keep your head well wet with cold water, otherwise Dr. says you will faint. Have you got your wrappers made yet? The weather has become very cold and you ought to wear them. O, I do hope you will not take cold and so bring back that pain in the pleurae. Have you entirely got over it? Do you sleep in a warm room?

cross-text: Tell Anna I never got her last Wednesday's letter. How was it directed? Also tell her that I am sure in her hands the melodeon is safe as in mine, and with proper care I heartily approve of having it where it will afford the greatest good to all.

    Are you not glad Mary and Anna are not here to help make my letter longer. The Cen came out the same time as your letter. I congratulate Anna on its early appearance. Hope you will not forget to give my love to Jane when you are here and kiss the little ones for me. I shall want to know what Robbie thinks of his horse. 
    What has become of Pierce and Owen? Have you heard any thing about or from them? When do you expect Lewis home? Have you heard from John? Love to cousin John and Margaret with many kind wishes to the good genius who helps in the office. Am looking for mother's letter. Dr. sends his kindest regards to all. His head is getting better.
