Scope and Contents Has not been able to get up to Eastville to get the blankets, paper, or envelopes for her since it has either rained, snowed, or been very cold lately; cannot "see the slightest probability of borrowing you any money" and Mother cannot make her a comfort; informs her that Nancy has not been able to work since last August, Patience has been sick, and the new cook has been in bed almost every day since she arrived, so all the work of the house lands on Mother; looked in Eastville for blankets but found only common ones that would not suit her.
