Judy Ann
I was very sorry not to be able to keep my promise to
Mary Jane last year, of sending you some salsify seed. I am glad
now that I can send you some for the coming year.
I have been much pleased to hear that your health has been
rather better than usual this Spring.
I trust that though you may never again be totally exempt
from all bodily infirmity, that yet your health may be such as to
give a charm to life, and that you may long be spared to your
family and friends. May we hope to see you again on this side of
the mountain? When I should claim a longer visit than your last
one to me.
Eliza will tell you that our dear father's health seems
at last giving way, but as he has improved since he has been with
us I trust he may get over his recent attack.
Mr. Rives I am sorry to say is very unwell. The warm
weather we have lately had has had a most debilitating effect upon
him. He joins me in best regards to you and the girls as do also
Papa & Mama.
