Roseland, La
Feb. 7, 1890
Dear Ma and All at Home,
As I am anxious about you all, I write again today hoping
& trusting you are all better than when you wrote. We are all as usual here.
I wrote to Annie yesterday as they, too, were in the grip of
la grippe. No cases here as yet and I
hope never will be. You all were affected
with it; must keep warm and not expose yourselves to the cold in any way.
We are having quite a heavy rain today with lightning and
thunder too. George & Howard were planting cucumbers
& radish seeds yesterday. You will
ask Robbie for the Amite city paper which he will get for this week. There is to be an article published upon
Roseland in it. It will interest you
all. I hope to hear that Uncle Henry
has recovered from his sickness. I gave
a list of names in the town to have copies of the paper sent to so they will
know where they came from or who sent them.
Why don’t M. H. Smith and W. T, Higgins write me? I hope they are all well during the cold
winter you are having. My kind regards
to Dr. Wakefield & to Adamz and all enquiring friends.
Affectionately yours,
Father
