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. She with her 3 little ones
travelled the whole distance to the terminus
of the RR and then took a waggon to the T.W.C.
place where she is now cooking under difficulties*
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 [O. lanes?] 2 months since and left here at
New Years
Nellies thing did not arrive in 3 or 4 weeks
