Sugar Run [New York]
April 17, 1882
My dear Cutie,
I want to drop my tears with you. Will you not let me?
Never since we have been so long time parted have I so longed to be near you as
now.
There are very many questions I very much wish to ask, but
I know as soon as you are able, you will write me a long letter with such
particulars you would love to know were it me instead of you. Until then, I will
wait & pray for the comforter to be very near you.
We are all comfortably well and all sympathize with you
all. Mrs. Morrow is very much better. A late letter from Mrs. True speaks as
though her health is not as firm as heretofore, and she is considering the
question of taking a rest.
Please accept congratulations for the new grandson &
good wishes for the health of his parents. I had been interested to write you a
long time but little thought of writing such as this.
Did Mrs. Herbert Goodrich call on you on her way home? I
did so much wish I could have gone with her.
I cannot write more at this time except, believe me as ever
your loving friend,
Sarah C. Young
