My dear Mrs Nicholas/
I am much/ obliged for your kindness in/ securing a woman for me in Ellen’s place, I was just thinking/ what I should do when she left but concluded it not best o/ be uneasy as in all times and/ seasons the “Lord will provide.”/
Ellen does not have me/ until the first of April but/ I would like when convenient,/ to see the woman and I trust/ she may meet my wishes./
We are quite well, Susan and/ Mrs Cornwall are baking with/ Mrs Hobbes, Mr Dole enjoying his evening at home, Best love/
