My own Darling,

Guess youl be expecting a letter though you didn’t tell me what day to write. Then too you know I always write about 2 or 3 letters to your one.

I am feeling much better than I did last week & truly hope Il not get such a miserable feeling again soon.

I wish I could look for you this week but guess you think time about is fair play & it’s my time to come & Il come too if my Old Plug doesn’t get to fussy. Don’t look for me though I may come Wednesday eve.

Mr. Allen & his daughter from McIntosh is here. They leave today. I tried to sit up & talk with them last night but was so sleepy I had to pull to bed. I lay down while the young lady was playing the Piano & I soon fell into the land of Nod, dreamily thinking, of you.

I told Mr. Enox yesterday I was out Sunday & tried to sell his horse again. “He” laughed. He formed quite a good opinion of you I think.

I wish you all were here to take a [illegible] into the Spring these [illegible] days for it is certainly fine.

I never get a letter now only from you & seldom one other so I get lonely to not get any only I think my Nellie is thinking of me just the same even if she doesn’t write every day. Just think 2 years ago I had 8 young lady correspondents. Quite a change isn’t it.

Bye Bye with love & write long letter.

Your own boy Glass
