We did not find the Photograph
that you promised to send, the children
(hunted?) the Geography all over but
but could not find it (Lottie?) wanted
to know how we liked your picture she
thought  Plymouth Oct. 21st 1864
it was a good one but we can't judge
until we see it. My Dear Charles
we received Mary's picture
the book &letter last wednesday.
morning all safe & I intended

to have answered it last week

but did not, I miss Mary about
writing letters as well as many
other things very much
your father says it is a good
picture but does not seem 
inclined to send for any more
but he has the Blues so much
this fall I did not expect he
would I should like 2 or 3 more of
them but if you order some
more, you need not send
them on, but keep them &
fetch them with you when
you come home
We sent you a letter 2 weeks
