            <text>very kind and sympathetic. He told&#13;
us not to say anything to Hattie&#13;
when we saw her, that [u]he[/u] would&#13;
tell her. We have felt very anxious&#13;
for some time that this [u]might[/u] be&#13;
what was in store for us, but she has&#13;
always been so bright and hopeful&#13;
and said before she went yesterday&#13;
that she had no anxiety about it; she &#13;
felt it would be all right. She will&#13;
&#13;
probably be in the hospital two weeks.&#13;
[u]We hope[/u] to keep her with [--her--] us for some&#13;
time but cannot tell her how long it may&#13;
be. We are all so thankful that you&#13;
come when you did it was a comfort&#13;
to us all. Hattie received your letter&#13;
and was pleased to hear from you. Tomorrow&#13;
we are going down again. I am glad&#13;
that you found your family circle&#13;
well. We all send love, and know that&#13;
you will think about us which is a comfort&#13;

非常善良和同情。 他说&#13;
我们不要对海蒂说什么&#13;
当我们看到她时，他会&#13;
告诉她。 我们感到非常焦虑&#13;
一段时间以来，这可能是&#13;
为我们准备了什么，但她有&#13;
总是那么光明和充满希望&#13;
昨天去之前说&#13;
她对此并不担心； 她&#13;
觉得会没事的。 她会&#13;
&#13;
大概要住院两周。&#13;
我们希望让她和我们在一起一段时间&#13;
时间，但不能告诉她可能需要多长时间&#13;
是。 我们都非常感谢你&#13;
当你这样做的时候来，这是一种安慰&#13;
对我们所有人。 海蒂收到你的信&#13;
很高兴收到您的来信。 明天&#13;
我们又要倒下了。 我很高兴&#13;
你找到了你的家庭圈子&#13;
出色地。 我们都发送爱，并且知道&#13;
你会想到我们这是一种安慰&#13;
亲爱的玛丽阿姨。</text>
