Friday – 29 th
My dear Henry,
I send the
enclosed letters at
the request of the
writer
Birth: 1819-03-19 Death: 1889-01-15

for which she
applies is already

of disappointed
applicants –

slept better
last night – was
free from fever –
Her illness is occasioned
by a slight inflam-
mation of the Bronchia
Her cough is less now
than it has been –
Your own
