User-Contributed Transcription Sat. morn.We gave the Dr. Father's letter. He said he did not think it would be safe for Sarah to go now -- he wished to let her go as soon as she could, and would do so. He said he would write to Father. Sarah is improving very fast now, has been for the past week especially. On the afternoon of the 4th we with two or three of the other patients and Dr. E.S. went to an Indian entertainment. The fee was 25 cts for each. It was very interesting. There were I understand chiefs from several nations dressed in the true Indian style, and the war dances, tomahawks, scalping and all did not entirely upset Sarah's nerves, but she was well My letter was from Miss Eastman a school friend to whom I had sent a circular, and Sarah's was from Mr. Hitchcock the husband of one of our patients last winter. She died recently very suddenly of heart disease, and he wished to know if Sarah had her likeness. He has not a good one. We love to hear from you as often as may be convenient. Has Mother got a new bonnet yet? Good bye much love now from Mary & Sarah My head is aching this morning and I do not feel very bright.
