him it was only membranous croup. You see he told a lie. (You know I said that about him once before.) Every one in this part of town is highly excited over it as it may be spread over the whole neighborhood. I have kept the children away from that part and have them gargle their throats twice a day. it is snowing today and has been hard to keep the house warm.
Did not get a letter from you this week, and feel kind of lonesome. i must tell you something funny now. You remember the horse and buggy Mrs Hunter drives. Well she met me down town one day and asked me to get in and ride, offered to take me four or five blocks to where I was going. Well, I could not refuse, but actually I felt as if I would crush the whole thing, and fairly braced myself when we went over a street car track. I think it would have been a judgement on you for laughing at the affair if anything had happened to us.
