of confusion, living between
two houses. They began
to move yesterday.
Molly is staying from school
to take care of Nelly

& has her chained to the
leg of a table to prevent
her from slipping out the
front door.
Fred

is quite well but much thinner then he
was last Autumn.
I had two splendid days
days for my journey.
Mrs Corning
Birth: 1794-07-31 Death: 1883-05-26
concluded to remain several days in
New York so I telegraphed
to Fred to meet me on
Tuesday night – at the
Saint Nicholas. He could
not go as Mr. Dawson
Birth: 1813-03-14 Death: 1883-02-17
had gone to Michigan and
left him alone in the office.
Mr Van Vorst
Birth: 1818 Death: 1889-10-26
came to see me & went with me to the
cars. I came up alone.
Fred met me at Greenbush.
Everyone says I look so
well, much fuller faced
than usual.
My luggage went direct-
ly over to the other house.
We all expect to go there
tomorrow.
All send much love.
Affectionately your daughter
Anna
