Dear Brother and Sister
I love to receive letters from
you, and as it is a motto that I think is perfect [do?] [unto?] others as we write
that they do write [no we out?] always do
our full share. We have been at home
or I have most of the time this spring
Mary has been helping [nurse?] [the?] of home
she will give you an account I suppose
I had quite a consern [concern?] to attend Philadelphia
yearly meeting but being so sick at
[illegible] did not seem best, while Mary
was at [illegible] helping them I went to
the Antislavery meeting expecting to
stay all night attended one meeting
which was a good one and got so [illegible]
about the sick ones that I came home
and from the papers the equal rights
meeting was rather inharmonious which
is not to be wondered at considering the
different views of the parties for as
strong an antislavery woman [illegible]
used to be she did not appear interested
in the meeting
