Letter 38 — Feb 13, 1873

I seat myself to answer your letter and to let you know that I am well at present, hoping when these few lines reach you that they will find you the same. Grandpa has got well. Our meeting broke last night, forty some joined the church. Henry & Kate joined the church and got religion. I will meet you at the depot if I can get in in time, if not I will meet you at Corcoran's grocery, but I will try and be there at the depot in time. You asked me about shirt buttons, I have not got any. Well I guess I will bring my letter to a close for I am very sleepy going to church. So good bye until I see you.

*(in same letter are a few lines written by Anna, I cant make out last name, to Bell) H. F. M.*
