To Jane Lampton Clemens
15 April 1884 • Hartford, Conn. (MS, in pencil: NPV, UCCL 02953)
Dear Ma—

I believe there is nothing new to report, except that we are all getting along tolerably fairly, though Jean is still in the doctor’s hands—though nothing serious. Weemendation are beginning preparations for the summer flight to Elmira, & shall expect to start a little before the middle of June. We have been donewn & done 3 weary days’ shopping in New York, & shall go to-morrow & do a couple more in Boston. I always hate this 2 -months’ preparation, but it can’t be helpedemendation. Annie was well, but we did not see her when we were in New York. With love to all—

Affly Your Son
Sam
