It has been such a long time since I have heard from you that I have been wondering if you are ill. Your kindly New Year's greeting has been the only message I have received since you were here last.

You are no doubt plodding away, doing some good work. but do not apply yourself too closely to it. If you can spare a little time, I hope you will write me and tell me how you are.

With Kindest regards

your sincere friend

Fay H. Sellers.

As she can not remain longer than March first I decided not to be left alone again. but sell the place and go where I would not be so constantly reminded of the last sad days of my husbands life.
