User-Contributed Transcription to us beforehand. We have been feeling very anxious about Mother (as doubtless you and Charles have) for more than a week, but the last news encouraged us very much and we hope to hear next that she is gaining fast. She must have had a very severe sickness. I hope she may be even better now than before she was sick. Do you hear from Almeda often? She has a hard task to perform. I hope she and her Rider will have strength equal to their day. I wish you could look in upon us in our home. If it were not that Isaac is going West I should really feel quite happy. I do not think he will
