Dear Mother A + Lucy
We arrived home last night with mother stronger I think than when we left. We kept up the "delaying" to go on time appointed "all the way". I was afraid it would be so when we began it at Dover. Aunt Lydia could not let us go and somebody Kittie Hottel or Hollet at Lorain would not let us go and the trains were late all the way so we missed connection and had to wait over both at Toledo + Detroit. But mother had an easy couch to rest on so it was all well for
Front: her if not better than us hurried transfer would have been. Give our love to everybody and tell them I'll write as soon as I can. Hoping you are all as well as when we left.
Yours Lizzie & MCollection
