She was glad to have his letter, for every line as writes is precious, since he cannot be with them. She hopes her letter of Feb. 12, 1884 reached him while he was still at Lisbon, and supposes he is now on the ocean again. She wishes him a pleasant voyage both to Key Frances and New York, and hopes their letters will reach him. She has not managed to see "the little body" of whom John spoke, nor has she seen Shorty. Her birthday will be spent at Sharon Hill, Pennsylvania, but she will not get to Baltimore until Easter. All John's friends have been asking about him; she sends him much love and assures him of many prayers. :: I-2-m A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
