well - it is very hard & tedious for them all. I have seen much of Myra who is doing everything. Dr B. looked as if cut out of wood the other day when he came in the parlor to thank me etc. Such a forlorn expression! I dare say he cringes before me & wouldnt just by what I think of him. I truly despise him. 
I have some lovely new dresses & am getting ready for the next move. It is my sick time & my eyes can write no more. 
Dont despair over your portrait, I am demented to see it. 
Polly I advised you to stay, but as I think of Grandma & the heat of summer I think you had better come in June. It would make us all much happier for we cannot but be anxious, this on one day & it to another. Grandma is very well. Dont be a bit worried only I would come if I were you. Etta.
