User-Contributed Transcription at Du Quoin. Love to old friends there. I should like to see Mrs Keyes book, so would mother, but I do not know as it best to buy one. You can judge best.I'll cut out the latest 'local item' and send it to you.

Will not seal it till morning, so I can tell you "what of the night". Mother is holding baby while I am writing. She is well as usual.Wednesday, morn, 22 (6 1\4 o'clock)} We are are all up and dressed but baby and all doing nicely. May did not vomit at all in the night.
