User-Contributed Transcription Anna thinks you must have but three weeks or so in a month down there as you say that half of $25 per month makes $4.50 per week - how is it? What do you pay for board - or what would we have to pay if we went down? You know I would like very much to escape from the office for a while -- but if Anna does not go down now, I suppose that it would be easier for me to get away when it is not such a busy time on the farm as it will be right away now. Don't you think I am capable of doing something else besides setting type? I think most any change would be acceptable - I have not been feeling very well lately and therefore have written no letters - I am sorry I neglected sending an answer about that velvet cape. Of course I have no objection for you to put it to the best and most serviceable use you can - I think it will look nicely made into a sack. Anna wants to know whether we had not better return to you that light sack you sent home with me. She text that follows is written perpendicular to the main body of the letter says if not you ought to get something instead of it. _ Give much love for me to Mrs. and Mr. Jones and sons Mr. Thomas' family, Mrs.
