The climate is very genial and is quite
healthy ^.^ I believe that state is called so justly
and I know thy dear boy (now I suppose
a large man) used to enjoy the country
air and the variety of such a life ^.^
These remarks are from thy old friend
whose latter days are full of new experiences
[Hollings] is now in Indianapolis peddling some
sort of patented thing and writes cheerfully
his daughter Nellie Curtis has left her husband
to earn a little more money and then to
join her in Tenn^essee^. She with her 3 little ones
travelled the whole distance to the terminus
of the RR and then took a waggon to the [the]
place where she is now cooking under difficulties
* Nellies thing did not arrive in 3 or 4 weeks
as her mother writes us from Poplar Ridge where
she is spending the winter with ETJ and enjoying
the society of "old [Lupio]". Doras enjoys better health
than she has for several years and bears up under
her repeated disappointments pretty well ^.^ she came
here from [] 2 months since and left here at
