East Northfield, Mass.Nov. 25, 1892.
5 P.M.My dearest dear:-
I must just tell you how dreadfully sorry I was to have you go away - aren't you surprised!! But I am so glad that you came - you always do me so much good & I do believe that you helped every body here who saw you. They satisfy even me in their expressions of love & admiration! Aren't you terribly sot up?
I hope that you did not get too tired dearie - you are a dear, dear woman & I love you so much.
Miss Hawley s'd that her ticket was only a dollar - there must have b'n some mistake about yours.
It is such a comfort to think that you are so near, so that if I sh'd happen to be taken ill in the night you c'd run for the hot water bag.
Kiss yourself in the glass for me ten thousand times - you may be curling your back hair at the same time.
Good bye, darling mine,
Josephine -
