She has something like a cancer (I suppose is a cancer on her right breast. has been there ever since 1st of June. We have all been doing every thing in out power for her. I wish it was so that you and Uncle could come. She is getting weaker every hour. Old Mr. Wise died Friday morn Nov. 21st. He was sick for several weeks. Was 87 a few days before his death. There has also been several deaths caused by dyptheria. and several children are now sick with it in this immediate neighborhood.
