User-Contributed Transcription Mt. Hol. Sem., June 24, 1850.Dear Father;I was very glad to get that $5 which you sent last week, you ask about how much more I shall need. Brother Robert sent me a gold $5 piece a few weeks ago, which will be quite a help to me now, I have, counting that, on hand nearly $14 and though I cannot tell how much my sickness will cost me for I am not yet strong enough to wait on myself in every thing, I think I shall need no more at present. It is quite doubtful whether I shall be able to study much this week. I hope to make up my lost lesson in philosophy so as to finish that this year I do not think it best to attempt any more. Next week thursday, we expect to commence our reviews in preperation for examination, and if I can attend to all my reviews I hope I can finish here in an other year, if my health is good. Do not feel anxious about me as I am getting better, though my strength seems pretty long in returning. I went to the stable last friday morn but as it tired me some Harriet thought I had wait a little before I go again. I went to meeting last evening (our meetings are in the sem. sat. eve)
