User-Contributed Transcription M. L'HOMMEDIEU,Sup't. Of School for A.M. Association.Norfolk, Va., January 3, 1870Anna, my dear Your letter and Mary's was received yesterday. It was like a sweet cordial tho my spirit was far from fainting. It was a great surprise to see Mary's date from home. Wouldn't it be agreeable if I could spend a week there too? But I am very happy here. I came home from school with Mrs. H. and as you see she has furnished me with pen and paper so that we may spend a little more time together for I thought I ought to go home and write. She tells me to say that I am in the room of my truest friend outside our own family. Be that so or not, she is truly a dear affectionate child whom I love "right well" as the southern phrase runs.
