Transcription
Thanks for the beautiful Views of the Valley and surroundings you so kindly sent me. I like them very much – and they have been much admired by other – So you are a staid home body now – with a good many cares – and a great many comforts – Do you not some times wish for an opportunity to climb to some mountain top – where you have not yet been – David still continues to spend his life in that store with seldom a days vacation and not always quite well and his wifes health is not very good either – Carrie is teaching this year for the first time –Annie is again engaged in the store – she likes that kind of work much better than teaching We are having a very cold backward spring which causes the farmers to complain not a little – but we have not been visited with any very severe storm such as have swept over many places arround us – It seems a long time – since I have had a letter from you – but will hope to hear from you soon With much love to you dear John, and to your wife and little DaughterI am sincerely yours Mother
