<p>Fruit Grove July 5th 1868 My Dear Husband I looked for you some yesterday evening, and knew if you came that you would not possibly have time to receive a letter from me after yours came to hand, and besides I have had no opportunity to send a letter. Your letter did not come until last Wednesday evening. I was getting very uneasy before it came and when I found how soon you had written, I knew it was not your fault. I am sorry you felt so badly when you got home. Essies Mother has left Mr Smiths and gone to Mr Helch&rsquo;s near Fairfield, so you see Essie</p><br /><p>(cont&rsquo;d from page 4) Dont be uneasy I take carae of myself well and be well as soon as possible I hope you are well All join in love. ginnie was looking for you and I tonight She baked a big cake for us Dr + Mrs Thompson will be there tonight.

Becca says she will go down in the wagon with you if you come up for a load, as teh big wagon will not hold all. Pa will come after her if she goes. I have not been very well since Friday morning I was going in the kitchen with a bucket of cherries in one hand and a bucket of water in the other and tripped and fell + jarred myself so badly that I was strongly threatened with a miscarriage, in fact it had commenced but I got it

very sick. Annie Carson has been lying nearly two weeks very low threatened with an abortion. You can do as you think best about bringing a horse for Essie I want my saddle to go and I will ride the horse part of the way if I&rsquo;m able, but this hot weather since I have been in the fix I&rsquo;m in would not suit me to ride far horse- back. I have not been taking much exercise since Friday Look Dr Gunn on miscarriage and you will see more than I can tell you in a letter. He says [?] ought to lie all the time but I have been up all I could. I lay&rsquo;d down several times yesterday but have not to-day. My back is very weak, dont tell anybody in haste Your loving wife Annie Love to all
