2 were with you, and the change in my occupation followed - The past week has been a very depressing and solemn one to Mother?
; as her dear old friend Mrs. Roby, who lived quite near illegible and with whom Mother spent? so many pleasant hours these
last years of her life - died, quite unexpectedly just about a week ago and here aged husband followed her in less than a
week - Both burried within one week - I can see that it has been a shock to mother, and as this is always a trying season
of the year I am a little anxious about her. I am glad to say that she is not sick, but she feels weak - complains of being
tired without doing any 3 thing to tire her - But I am going to get a tonic for her, hope that she will get along all
right - Sarah has just returned from the country where she? has been cultivating the acquaintance of her two grandchildren
- Kenneth Bernice Eastman. Joanna's health is rather better than it has been - and she is somewhat encouraged about business
as Walter has made a change. Is now travelling for a lumber Co. And as he has, in the past, been engaged in the lumber or
timber business - and is to receive a stated salary, there seems less uncertainity about their affairs - 01410
