User-Contributed Transcription Lewiston, Me., Aug. 9, 1891Dear Cynthia & Co.,Your good letter is just received and read and oh, so welcome was the good news from home. We are having a very pleasant visit, but I do believe I'm a bit homesick for a sight of our dear old home and home friends are we had heard nothing from you except that little note with the medicine. I have not been feeling quite so well as usual since coming here and John Eddie has had the queerest looking face all covered with ridges as tho' he had had the small pox. It felt hot to the touch and he kept rubbing it - I think it madetop margin:but if it is hard for him to spare anything now we have enough to take us home - we shall look for that. - We are so sorry Ma has been sick - but if she was to be sick certainly home was the pleasantest place to be in. We hope she is quite well again now - when does she think going to New York? When do you think we had better go home if we go the way we came - what do you think of our trying to see Ella - we should be going through Worcester. I am glad you are getting on so well with the Cenhadwr and have succeeded in getting in the apples - how I wish I could have helped you - Poor little Barney good bye hope the other birds will live - love to all Jennie.annotation at bottom, in a different hand:(the date probably should be Oct. not Aug.)
