I am sending a couple more letters that I have in my file. The first is from a doctor sending medication. The second is between relatives which I found interesting. Again, John R. Weller is my gggrandfather. Enjoy. Ellen Mt Pleasant Jan. 4th/66 (1866) John R. Weller Dear Sir Your note of yesterday has just been received. I send such medicine as I think you will require for those pains. The powders marked with a X are to be prepared in water one every day in ad tumbler water and two teaspoons full taken at a time between the powders as before and as directed on the envelope. you can continue the medicine at night too if you cannot sleep not otherways. Leave off the other medicine until this is done then if not better let me hear again. State if you have any sweating after the fever subsides. Yours C Pearsen ************************************************************************ New London Iowa Feb. 1st, 1892 Dear Sister Martha I will write to you again although I received no answer to my last one. We are all tolerable well. Sis is getting better slowly is able to go the table to eat her meals but she is very thin and weak. I suppose you have heard by this time of Brother Richard death. The last words I heard him say were "farewell vain world I am going home." My savior smiles and bid me come. Aunt Dollie says tell you that she is sitting there Ia a dark room all alone and blind that she can't see hardly one thing and want to know how you would feel if you were in her condition. Martha Ann is as fat as some hog and about as lazy. Martha, you wanted to know if I had forgotten you but you will know by my writing to you that I have not and I never will while I live. It was a mistake about Charlie and Linda going through your town. They only went to Emmet Moore's about 50 miles from here so you see they were quite a ways from you. Me think to much of you all to treat you in that way. We are having a good meeting out at Asbury now "Tommy Lee" proffessed Saturday night and he is the happiest boy you ever saw. I am glad you are going to see your children but I know you are more glad than I am but Martha don't you think you could come down and see us. Can't you come and spend the rest of the winter with us. I almost forget to tell you Mr Peckham was buried last Sunday but do not know his disease. And old Mrs. Morgan is very low with heart trouble. You remember her. She is living at Nick Millers. You know her son Jesse married Jennie Miller and he rented Millers farm. Now Martha I want you to answer this letter and don't think any more that I have forgotten you. Love to every one of you from your sister Adeline to her dear sister Martha
