Text Any textual data included in the document Carina. <br />On the receipt of your letter, I made the messenger wait for a note to post from me to you, as we are 2 miles from the post office &amp; messengers scarce, so my note was very likely more [underlined] than usually incomprehensible, but my telegram sent, at the same time, I hope informed you in sufficient time that I could not hope to occupy the rooms you had so kindly taken for us at the Hotel, and it is very fortunate that we did not attempt to make the move, for though she was ailing a good deal, &amp; enough to make her feel that she did not dare to attempt the journey, yet. Yesterday morning, Emma Stebbins had an aggravated attack of the old enemy, which so completely prostrated her, that she has not been able to leave her bed, where she now is, so ‘all’s well that ends well’ &amp; if you have not been inconvenienced about the rooms at the Hotel, I shall pocket my disappointment, as I have had to do a great many times within the last few years; &amp; try to make it up some other time. The weather here has become so very cool, and so tempestuous that we expect the disappointments for ourselves, less than if it had been the hot muggy murky rainy weather of which I hear from Emma Cushman in Newport. Her youngest boy has taken to ailing just now, so that she could not have left. Even had she been so minded as we all were last Monday [underlined]. <br />On Tuesday I have been for a day in Boston, &amp; on Monday 6th we go to Newport &amp; on the night of the 17th God willing, we go to New York to 128 East 16th St. where you will find me. Don’t forget me in your collecting of leaves for though I may not have a house of my own to put them in, next winter, yet I shall be going to my childrens house in St. Louis, &amp; I should dearly like to have some for Emma Cushman’s to put up in her country house just out of St. Louis where I shall hope to be by the end of Jany, &amp; through Feby, for an event which oddly enough always calls for my presence, as though I was a grandmother [underlined]. <br />I am so sorry not to be with you this next week, &amp; yet it is thought even wiser for me not to have to take that journey to Bethlehem, but it is a shame to have given you such trouble about the rooms. Forgive me, I would do as much for you. Ever my kindest regards to Miss Adams[?] My regrets to all your friends &amp; with Miss Stebbins’ kind love, Believe me ever, as I am ever, <br />Your loving friend C.C. <br /><br />I have your dear little 2d edition with the Welcomes [underlined].
