My Ma:
This has been a beautifull Sunday I went to
[m???] this morning the first I have been able in two months.
I was so glad to be able.
I was just washing the little pie tin you gave me the one you
used to bake little pies in for Cora, I thought of you and how
you did enjoy it I hope it is as nice weather there as it is
here so you can get out,
dear Ma just as soon as it gets cold so your head feels cold
at night you wear your night cap it is in one of your drawers
I think next to the top in the end toward the Window I
put it, I will make you a new one for Winter you wear that this
fall, love from all
Emily XXXXXXXXX X
