My Dear Amy
                            I received
yours this morning and hasten
to take this opportunity to
answer it I am very much
pleased to hear that Mrs
King is doing so well I
know that if she is doing
right she will be assisted
buy that higher power, which
is above us but sill around
and within us give my best
wishes and love to her
                                  I am
sorrory [sic] to hear of Mr Hammond
death I wish that I could
be a little more spiritual

(Page 2)

and get such knowledge from my
Spiritual friends I hope he will
come and see me
                             I am sorry
to hear that mrs Edgeworth
behaves so badly and that
Mrs Hamilton has not come
round yet I hope that
you will see her and yet
I would warn you of such
a woman my Sister wrote
me that she had called
on mr Hammond and
that he told her that he
was sorry that the Spiritualists
were so unfriendly that there
were but a few that called
on him I am glad that
you went to see him
Also that Mrs Coleman
has got something to do

(Page 3)

     I am doing well and hope
     I shall for some time to
     come .
                  It has been very
warm here for the last two
weeks thermometer ranging
from 90 to 106 in the Shade
and up to 140 in the sun
and upward we had a fine
Shower last yesterday and it
is some cooler to day
                                  I am
well and writeing [sic] this in the
greatest hurry you must excuse
the bad writing as I have to
do every thing in a hurry
give my love to Isaac and
accept yourself
               Yours Emily G Beebe
