leived me from more trouble than you can well
imagine—I was afraid that you were offended
& although I knew that I had done nothing to
deserve your anger, I was in a most uncom
-fortable situation—without one cent of money
—in a strange place & so quickly engaged in dif-
-ficulties after the serious misfortunes which
I have just escaped—My grandmother is ex-
-tremely poor & ill (paralytic) My aunt Maria
if possible still worse & Henry entirely given up
to drink & unable to help himself, much less
me— | | Similar Items: | Find |
