User-Contributed Transcription hundred-- Mr. Nevins tried to make out that she weighed a hundred and one, which is the weight of a witch. She may come up to that some time, but she doesn't yet, though she has a good deal of the witchery in her I believe-- She finds, by resuming the exercises and walking that she is no stronger, and in some things not as strong as when she left here in the winter. She has not had a hard spell with her side as she feared she would It has troubled her rather less than it did when she was home, but the Dr. still fears there is something growing there. Sarah feels quite badly about it. I am sorry for her as I can be, but I cannot comfort her as I wish I could--Now Mary, dear, I am going to draw on a long face and tell my own story--I have been a real good girl. I can tell you. I bore my transportation from home to Saratoga like a hero Ask Lewis if I did not? I behaved myself pretty well after he went away too though I kept trembling and my chin kept chattering for two days, in spite of all I could do. I have had two spasms but neither of them were hard-- Monday the Dr. talked me into one, and yesterday your lettercrosstextThursday morn 'This morning Sarah asked the Dr. about your letter Gratitude to you and sympathy for the afflicted unclear and he says that he received it. Sarah did summon courage to ask him if it was what they wanted but I presume it was or he would have said it wouldn't
