and I was heartily rejoiced to hear from one whom I can call
sister. I now take you on the list for a new correspondent.I hope
you will continue to write Nothing gives me
more real pleasure than to sit by our cheerful fireside and read
an affecctionate letter from those I so dearly love. I wish I could
make my appearance and be with my earliest and affectionate
friends in old Virginia. I have spent many most pleasant
hours with them and memory shall ever
hold them as clear and sacred I hope you
are agreeably domesticated at home and you now have my warmest
wishes. May Brother make an indulgent husband, and ever speak
kindly. May no cloud ever rise to darken your pathway. I feel very
grate- ful to you for offering me a home with you and brother. No
doubt it would be a pleasant home. I shall
except of it if I be so fortunate as ever go back. Remember me kindly to all my
relations | | | Similar Items: | Find |
