We received your joint letter on Saturday morning. It
found Mr. H. about the same. We are thankful that he is no worse
although he does not appear to be any better. The Abscess for a
week or so has been discharging more than for some time past. He
does not gain any strength, and his weakness combined with the
swelling keep him as helpless as an infant. His appetite continues
good, and he rests tolerably well at night. I was in hopes that as
the spring opened and the weather became warmer he would be able
to sit up, but judging from a day or two last week when it was
very warm, I am afraid it will not have a very beneficial effect
upon him, but I will not borrow trouble on interest, believing
that "sufficient for the day is the evil thereof".
I saw a notice in the paper that the Adams & Co. Express
that failed in San Francisco was not connected with the one
through this region, and if they have a bar attached to the Railroad
passing through C. Mr. H. says there would be no risk in
sending by it, but if there is not a bar belonging to them, he
thinks there may be some uncertainty about the eggs reaching him
and you better not send them, and he will take the will for the
deed. Write soon. We all join in love to you and yours,
