User-Contributed Transcription Remsen, May 5, 1881My dear Nephew, Your letter was wonderfully cheering to us--it seemed to bring a flood of light into our hearts. We feel lonely and sad at times and pretty tired taking care of ourselves indoors and out. We shall be very glad to have you home, but we do not wish you to come till you are quite ready. We shall think of you a great deal during the examinations and wish that you may not find them very hard. What you say about the telephone and microphone interests us very much--we hope you will succeed in making them. I have never seen either and I think I never heard of the microphone before--I do not under-stand much about them and shallin top margin limb now and is gaining nicely. She is cheerful and does not look sick at all. Dr. Owen attends her. Lewis was quite poorly last week but he is better again--the rest are well. Mrs. John W Roberts has had another stroke of palalysis--she is quite helpless--unable to move one side, --Timothy is at home for the summer. We saw in a late Herald that J.W Owen--Alder Creek is studying law. --We have not heard lately from your father--when did he write to you last? Accept love and do not fail to write soon. Jennie Everett
