Identifier: CBRH III-3-a

Scope and Contents

Sarah sends Henry the present time table of the Long Branch road which is more convenient than the Central. Henry is to let Sarah know a day or two beforehand of his arrival. The Tenneys have had quite a seige of company. The baby has been sick since Sunday. The doctor says it is her teeth. It has thinned her down dreadfully. They say the baby is much prettier now than when she was so fat, but Sarah is grieved at the change. Sarah weighed 148 the other day, 22 more pounds than when she was married. She is pretty well used up, however, by the baby's sickness. She hopes they shall all be fat and jolly again by the time Henry gets here. P.S. Sarah does not ask after Fifine for she must know by this time how to take care of herself. Her love to the giant; big babies are always the best natured so Fifine's must be charming. :: III-3-a A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
