I have been trying for a good while to get a
moment to write a few lines to you and to Phobe but
I have not found time. Infact I have had so much to do
that I have not been able to accomplish my work as
it ought to be done. I received Phobe's letters on her
return home and I have not heard from you.
I have almost had a Hospital at our farm home. Emma & myself have both got up from the grip
and now Alice is very sick with a hard cough and
low fever, but she seems a little better this morning.
All three of Clara's children have been very sick with
the measles but are getting better. Beulah has
been called suddenly to San Francisco to Calla
with "pneumonia", but she is better now. I
dont know when she will return again. I hope
soon to learn that you are up again.
