User-Contributed Transcription us & I would like to be acquainted with her, but hear that as a family they hold themselves quite high & do not like to make the advances. I have made many kind friends since I came up into this part of the city - they are all so kind to me & I know and fee that it is because my Heavenly Father sends those blessings to me & not because I deserve them. All of Orrin's friends are just as kind to me as they can be & I can not tell you how good & kind Orrin is to me. I wish you knew him. I know you would like him. Aunt Nettie I want to see you very much & hope that I may. It will not be in the least inconvenient (on my account) but I shall not be able to accomodate you as we would like to but if you will take us as we are, we will try to make you comfortable & shall be most happy to see you. Do not disappoint us. I do not expect to be sick till the last of the month - shall have help
