Dear Cousin Anna,
I recd thy note announcing the death of thy dear sister, and it was very thoughtful and loving of them to remember me- though I had, the day before, recd a short note from Henry himself. It was sudden as sad to me, as I had heard nothing of her further declining health or illness. When I saw cousin Mary last was at Mt. Pleasant about 2 years ago. Then, though looking delicate, she seemed as bright and reminded me strongly of the days of her beautiful girlgood. O, those dreamlike days! of your cousins, in your Arch st. home, and the several Paradises, that the 'Doctor', and cousin Frank and I need to rifle
