Careta is very generous to every body she takes to Blanch she wants her with her often to cheer her up. so when she came home before six last night. she was full up to her arm pits. a great bag of fruit oranges bananas grapes & pears. she was going away down to her brothers so got rid of her fruit. Mrs. Marden finds her with her eats, also give her money & clothes. she is not well has never got over taking care of her mother her back is bad. she had her mother to lift she was always good to her all through her crazy period & she was an awful ugly thing & it was a wonder she didn't kill one of them. Mamie Kate is going to Boston today & Neelie is going to take her to the Depot so they will drive up here & leave out bottle of wine I am going to send back those little dresses after tomorrow & hope they are to suit you better.
Do be careful of your lame are dont do heavy things 'till you get over it. let the others do for you. Ma

Transcription Notes:
"be careful of your lame arm" is what Ma meant to write near the bottom.
