Dear Susan
You need expect nothing from me for some time I have no vitality of body or soul. All I had and was has gone into the development of that boy. It is now four weeks since my confinement and I can scarcely walk across the room You have no idea how weak I am and I have to keep my mind in the most quiet state

in order to sleep. I have suffered so much from wakefulness. -
I am always glad to hear from you and hope to see you on your way to N.Y. When you write to Antoinette give my love to her If she starts in her meetings we will take Cousin G’s $20, every little helps.
in haste
your [friend]
