User-Contributed Transcription Saturday and a part Friday or Monday. Elisabeth says she would just as leave as not, and rather have it left a week any time that I do not feel very well. She says she wants me to feel just as much as if I was keeping house for myself as I can, that the work I do is my work, and I have a right to do it when I please, and to leave it when I please. I know it made her feel a little badly, although she did not say so to think you were afraid she would let me overdo. and dear Mother, do not be uneasy any more, for I am careful and I intend to be. I feel grateful to you for your care, but would not have you be anxious. - I hope my next letter will not be all about myself as this seems to be thus far. We were glad to learn that you had heard from Father. I guess I will write to him to-morrow as Sarah suggested. Thank the girls much for their letters. Tell Jane that I could hardly resist that persuasion "Dear Cynthia write soon." I thought yesterday that I must answer it right away but as I didn't quite have time, and as you will hear from us by this now, I guess I will wait a few days before
