User-Contributed Transcription I don't know that she is really spunky, but she is strong and has good lungs. We feel quite anxious lest we lose the opportunity of engaging that house on account of your waiting to hear more from us. I suppose Mary had better engage it before she comes home. Eddie says he can't cry any more, because his little cousin will do all the crying. When he went down to see it he forgot to notice how many fingers it had, but I told him I knew for I counted 4 on each hand - "Aunt Cynthia counted them, he exclaimed there were 4 on each hand that makes 12." Maggie is delighted with her sister, the boys looked very sober at first, and hardly looked at her, but they are fast getting over it. Onie? wrote to Uncle Will about it, and Robbie carried the letter to the office, and bought the Baby a rattle with his own money He carried it to his mother and told her not to send it out to the kitchen for he didn't want the rest to see it. He tried to get his mother an orange but couldn't find one. I am much obliged to Mary for mailing my letter. It brought what I requested _ day before yesterday. Ill not take time to answer Mary's letter now I hope to see you both soon Love from Sister Cynthia
