Awbury
8 mo. 11th 82
My dear Anna and Algie
I am so glad to get home again that I am going to write to you and tell you all about the strange times I have had. Since you went away I have been very lonely and not having anyone to play with have been with Kate and Lizzie most the time - Last first day week in the afternoon Lizzie went out and as there was no one about at home I thought I would go too she told me to "go home" a great many times but I wanted to go so I wouldn't mind her but followed on - I wish I had minded her for I had a great deal of trouble - She went over to Germantown and went into a great big house I think I heard them call it a church I tried to go
