Dear Mother
Last night
I felt of course a
little homesick. Morning
has however dispelled
it although the sun
does not shine,
So far from it
that we have had
a severe thunder-
storm and gas (at
half past seven) at
break-fast did its
service. Frances’es

bouduar sitting room
were you say ladies
recieve their particular
friends, is Fannys (mine)
now, and Is am
writing in it; it is
very light has one window
and large glass doors
opening on the piazza.
It has rained hard
and a little bird
but a moment
ago sipped from one
of the puddles left by
it. There sits a little
robin near my parlor
window for me to
see his beautiful red
breast, give love
to all and this
little letter to Eliza.
I read in my testam-
ent this morning.
Good bye, and answer
my letter if it is not
too tiresome.
Your own little
Fanny
(Seward)

not get his share of
love. You will come
out here in the
summer some time
won’t you? good
bye dearest darling
mother.
your Little Fanny
