from [them?] for some days but no letter comes I
hope this [illegible] forgetting us for it
[would?] be terrible to be forgotten by those
we love so much but I [illegible] no
such thoughts. [Leny?] thinks of going
this evening & Sarah A [illegible] tomorrow
morning Rochester will therefore be rep-
resented by 4 strongminded women but
I know of no men Except I may look
in at the Womans meeting before the
close [best?] I have not yet fully det-
ermined. If there should find it [convenient?]
to have a line giving information when
[Any?] can be found 5 day afternoon or evening
or Sixth day Morning and giving any other
information that will do me good at
[illegible] [Nussey?]. It may benefit me
Joseph & wife and children are at our house now
he appears to have to have them there
things seem to move a long smoothly Jenny
Sister I believe it is the youngest has been
at our house a number of days we
hear nothing from Willie [Ibekin?] we both
think he went home with [Eunice?] Dolly
[Irming?] [riged?] him up so that he felt
