It is good you are so well fitted to manage and I surely wish Mrs. Davis recovers from the effects of the flu when I had it took weeks before I had much strength. I think summer may be more favorable it was very cold when I had it and I lacked fresh air. When Maurice went to town to go to Des Moines he found they had given him the wrong date they went the day before (7th) so he came home and now we have him another week. The 16th is the date he goes to D.M. and I suppose he will go soon after. It is so good to have him. I have not written any of the girls lately. Will try to write more next time.
