The little house is quite comfortable- an immense improvement on the old cabin. There are two rooms below and one above, which however could be made into two. We occupy the loft for a bedroom, and Andy (and another man when there is one,) sleeps on the floor downstairs Tomorrow I presume I shall see about bills for the sale.

He will be strong again soon.
