User-Contributed Transcription (The Wednesday before Christmas)Wednesday Dec. 22, 1852My dear Sister Sarah;The twenty second of December has come at last, and I now hasten to fulfull my promise.

I suppose you would like to know when my recitations come; well to begin with, my first one, which is Arithmetic for I must tell you that I am studying Arithmetic instead of Algebra is at nine, Astronomy at one, and Phisiology at three.

I have two room mates,
