Transcript
Dearest Mama—I was so glad to get your letter—it is a weight off all our hearts and must be like a new life to you. We have thought of you constantly and were afraid you would break down under so much trouble, especially in a foreign place. You have one comfort now, that it is a very good climate to get well in. So we shall expect the best news of both your invalids and you must take the best possible care of yourself. Lucy will go to the bank the first thing tomorrow morning to see about the circular notes. Here are Mr & Mrs Lane come just as we were going to bed, but I don’t think they will stay long, for we are nearly dead asleep. Best love to all of you and rapid recovery
your most loving son
