South Bend Ind. March 18

Dear Annie: I recd. your letter and was very glad to hear from you and that your mother is better I was afraid you were going to suffer a double bereavment and one at a time is bad enough.

I hated to come away while you were gone but I thought Lib would see after the children all right and I knew you would not want me to mis the chance.

This is mothers birth day have you thought of it? Wednesday will be Fathers.

Lib was Anna's neighbor, Elizabeth Vorhees.

I think Lillie refers to Ashley's niece, Lillian M. Carlisle Ghrist but I'm not certain.
