User-Contributed Transcription Do not deprive yourself of a home (&c.) a wife only till you can find a good one -------Has cousin Joseph been working with you? Is he intending to engage in that business? You did not mention any other of our friends I want to whisper in your ear that you must not follow your feelings of like and dislike but treat cousin H. with the same attention you do chosen relatives - I wrote to Marie not long since give my love to them each and all when you see them and write me every particular about yourself: where I write to expect you wish to hear about myself, - I begin to wonder some at not hearing from our folks think Lucy must be just about moving from Hampden perhaps on a visit to Milo.Affectionately Anna
