Affectionately
Angeline Hall.
Georgetown Sept. 28 (1868)
Dear Sister Mary, Little Angelo is only twelve days old, but he is as bright and smart as can be. I have washed and dressed him for four days myself. I have been down to the gate to-day. And have sewed most all day, so you see I am pretty well.
To day is Samie’s birthday, four years old—he is quite well and happy—The baby he says is his.
How do you all do. I should like very much to take a peep at you in your new home. Do you like it? We like our old place better and better all the time. You must write to me as soon as you can. Do you get your mail at Adams Centre? Have you any apples in that vicinity this year?
Mr. Hall has just been reading in the newspaper a sketch of Henry Keep’s life which says he was once in the Jefferson Co. Poor house, is it true?
Much love to you all
Angeline Hall.
