User-Contributed Transcription had such a shaking in my life, going to the depot was worse than when we went up to your house. I want to see Francis as well as the rest of you. Does your sewing progress? I must stop and mend pants for fear Keyes will awake. Yours with love, Mother.Is there anything here, or anywhere in this vicinity, that you want brought over to Oberlin? I, Grandfather Metcalf, want to see my grandson. So I am going to Oberlin--sometime. I have an excuse to carry over a barrel of sugar I promised to carry over last fall as soon as the roads were decently good. They are getting so now.
