The Ross Residence—
Dearest Trudie
Your letter received in which you tell me that your mail was lost. I am sure one of my letters was among the missing—To-morrow morning I will call Mr. Barnett of the Trust Co. and ask him to forward you a duplicate.
I am still quite under the weather as to my feelings but I have had so much to do to-day that I had not an opportunity to consider my troubles, but to-night I realize my them.During the night and to-day I have been to see Mr. W. four times. Dr Sawyer has been calling me every hour or two for something in the way of medicine etc. I loaned him Miss Powderly and Miss Robertson—two nurses from the Dispensary. I am afraid he has a real sick patient on his hands. Notice he has three homeopaths in attendance—Christian said he wished they call me in—but of course, they will not do that for a moment.
The best way for you to go to Avon, NY is to take a train at Boston either at (7) seven or (10) ten at night—arriving there at 7 or 10 the next day. I’ll engage your state room etc from here. The seven o’clock train would be the best. From Rochester you have to go Avon by electric cars, if they do not meet you in Rochester by motor.
I am forwarding the letter to Miss Boyle—I’ll be all right in by day after to-morrow. It is cooler to-night. I miss you very much, my dear. If the Trust Company is skimpy with you, wire me I can put five hundred or more in the American Security & Trust Co—for you—I hate to think that you may be in need of it and not have the necessary cash on hand—Take care of your purecious self and the dear little fellows—and dearest love to you all.
