Well now here I am on the 4" page and
still not done ^.^ I have such nice time to
write ^as^ my room is warmish day & night
by a morning Glory stove and I am
clear of all my old ailments fleshy 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 [illegible] 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 [illegible] of men
Mexie's Eldest girl attends the seminary over there
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 tens of [illegible] are here assorted
and packed & shipped on the Steam Boat which
runs all winter.
J P Chase took six hundred dolls [dollars]
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.
