Abstract:
Had hoped the recipients, her niece and nephew, would have visited last summer, "but as you say mosquitoes are great pests quite enough to frighten one not accustomed to them, as for ourselves, we are so used to them we do not much care for them." Remarks on the death of her child, Margaret, and religious hopes to meet her in the afterlife. Hears little news where they live, "It is very quiet indeed here, with little else but the chirping of a bird or buzzing of a mosquito to break the monotony of our lives."
