Father's health has been very good all winter; but he is quite feble. and keeps his bed constantly. he has not been down stairs since the 3rd of last September.

He is very happy, however and says he believes him self to be the happiest man living.

Dear Brother John:

As Willis is writing to Annie I will send you a few lines. I send you my photo, which I hope you will like. I also send a photo of our house.

Doubtless you will be looking some for "Father's picture." I hope to send it ere very long, and I know I can improve on what you saw. I …

I suppose you will have formed the acquaintance of your brother-in-law, Willis Hand, by this time. He is making quite an ex- tensive trip.

How I wish Mary could have gone with him. But Willis has two little boys I suppose it looked impossible to them. We are all about as usual here. Father is failing, I think, alhtough he seems quite vigorous at times. Little Ethel is the pet - & comfort - of the entire family Father says she is a delightful child.

Joanna & Walter send love to you all-

Hoping that you are all well …
