User-Contributed Transcription and get along beautifully. She seems domestic and happy as need be. O hardly know what we are going to do while Isabel is gone. I can hardly get along some days now; however, I presume we shall manage some way. Eliab will not come home to dinner much. I think you must all have had a hard time at Milo- all sick together. I want very much to hear how your cold is and how the children are. I should think Albina would be almost worn out. I am in a great hurry - baby is worrying - Mallie will write some - i suppose Samuel will tell you the news and how many wonderful things Percie can do. We had letters from Isaac & Nettie a few days since - no special news. In haste, with much love to Albina and all. Lucy.Father, John and Bell are all going to be married, before long - Father to a widow lady residing at St. Paul, forty five years old.
