My dearest Father,
You were very kind to write me this week in mother's absence. I should, indeed, have missed her letter exceedingly if it had not been for yours. It seems a long time since I heard a word from her, for her last week's letter was very short. Harry wrote me a few words yesterday which I recd today at noon- I shall write to him and also to dear little Gracie as soon as I get off this "high pressure" system which seems to fall to my lot
I expect to accomplish great things then. I don't think of anything more that I could say concerning myself or any body else-Tell Nell that I am very impatient for a letter from her. Much love to mother and all the brood.
Yr. affec. Mary
