My Dear Par, Bro, & Sis,
We are midling well Well this morning, We buried Phebe yesterday, it is a very hard blow on sister Eleanor, She was perish when we got home, She Just lived one week The doctor Said She had Typhoid fever, then pneumonia, When that was broken upon her, it all settled in her spinal cord He called it spinal getis, I do not know what we will do to comfort poor Eleanor, they came home with us from the grave yard, They are at Phebes. The weather is quite cold, has been ever since we left there, little Phebe may of caught a little cold while on the road, Eleanor took the best of care of her, The carpenters have the roof on brother John's home, I toke the the lumber to the planer to be planed to day if he piles it out, I will write soon love to all Your Son, Jim
29 all well, cold and windy the water out of the canal and we planting trees.
Eleanor feels terrible we do not know how to console her,
J.H.
