Just how I am driven to the wall—absolutely! I won't have a single free hour until after the fifteenth;—the neglected business affairs of two years to untangle. And I so hate that kind of grind. However, I did get my hand back4 to work, and I did get to5 California6, and I have got my blood count up7 to normal. All this takes time and work—though I expect young people don't believe it.
Lovingly Your Aunt Willie March 5thI miss Mary Virginia8 terribly.
