Noble Co Ind September 20th
My Dear Husband,
I now seat
my self to write a few lines
to you to let you know that
I have not forgoten you yet, and
to let you know that I am still
a live and enjoying tolerable
good health, the rest of the
family are well except Sarah
Jane, she is not well yet, but
she is able to be up a part
of the time now, but is not
able to set up all the time
yet. the Doctor has not been
to see her for two weeks
tomorrow, but she was very sick
and it takes a long time for
any one to gain strength that
has that fever, but she had
the flux in the first place
and after the flux was checked
