My Dear Sister
My mind has
been for the last week wo anxany-
ious and with great reason
for Tempe
Birth: 1812-09-30 Death: 1848-10-18
. I think I wrote you a few days since that
she had been taken with a
distressing turn of vomiting
wrenchening and coughing
These have gradually gave
way and she become comfortable
until Sunday evening when
her fever symptoms became sec
more violent with a sudden
rise of rise of fever These
however again gave way in
some measure and at this
time I think she appears
better. She has rested quite
well and says atmost for the
the only time that she feels
less distress in the stomach
You will excuse my short
and perhaps unintelligible
letters I should not trouble
you so often were it not
to allay the solicitude more
or less always felt from severe
and protracted illness
Yours Affectionately
G W Seward
