Martinez, Dec. 28. 1898 My dear Sellers Mrs Muir I were greatly shocked distressed by the news of your accident. You must
have suffered horribly long in any case but after the ligaments muscles were swollen inflamed to have your arm set 48 hours
after your fall was enough to kill. I am glad you have weathered the storm I devoutly hope that soon you will be perfectly
free from pain sound strong as ever. I have always felt that sidewalks everything artifical civilized were dangerous this
dreadful accident is surely enough to drive you into the wilderness. Providence has to all but kill us to get us into safety
