since I received your last,

and I havent delivered your

message,  I saw Mary E and

told her what you told me to

tell her, it seemed to tickel her

very much indeed, she looks

as well as ever.  And you havent

changed you name to Miss Whit-

aker yet, why dont you? and you

must be sure to let me know

so I can be there with the [Canss?]

[Hare?], she will be a pretty lady

changing her name to Mrs

Hollingsworth, dont you

think? tell her she must

ask me for you, well dear

I am ashamed for you

to see this mess but I hope

you will excuse all,  I will

try and do better next time,

I will take more time any how,

give my best love to Cousin
