29 Kansas City Mo Nov 15. 1885

Dear sister Mary: -

Your letter was a great pleasure to me. I can hardly tell why best your kind [expressions?] seem to have the effect of lifting my heart [illegible] had posted under such depressing circumstances and when I was feeling so incapable of doing anything for your comfort during your trip that I had a sad feeling every time I thought of you, which was frequent. Consequently I just needed your letter. I am so glad that after all your visit [deleted: in all] did you good and you are now …

Kansas City Mo. Nov. 7. 1885.

Dear Sister Mary –

I have been looking for a word from you but will not wait longer fearing that you may not be as well as usual after the fatigue of travel and all you passed through here. Sarah wrote me that you did not remain long in Portage. Maggie and John remained her only one day after you, and John Muir and Annie [started?] the following Wednesday; and as Annie Hanson went home the same day, declaring herself tired out, we were left entirely alone. Walter, Ethel, and [myself?]. It seems inexpressibly …

This morning Mary's little boy came to the bedside and he made signs for me to hold him up to be kissed. Short-lived gleams of recognition are followed by clouds of sleepy feebleness, …
