Well now here I am on the 4" page and
still not done I have such nice times to
write ^as^ my room is warmish day & night
by a morning Glory stove and I am
clear of all my old ailments freshly and
well I seem renewed in life and am
mostly in good spirits. I have learned to
be content with little society– All around
are the old sets with their dried up creed
and we are not congenial spirits so we
stay at home mostly. [Aby] Chase enjoys such health,
as I never anticipated for her does a great
amount of work. Tho' her husband is one of
the most helpful and that thotful of men
[Mexie's?] Eldest girl attends the seminary over the
on the opposite side of this lake and the
little 4 year old is much company for me
This is considered a very healthy place a fine
fruit country tons of apples are here assorted
and packed & shipped on the Steam Boat which
runs all winter.
J P Chase took six hundred dolls
worth of peaches - from 3 acres of trees
I hope I shall be able to visit my friends
west some time in the spring or summer
Thine with warm affection my love to all
the round of dear ones.
