Afterwards had a little
social time and then Dr
Happer read a hymn and
we had two prayers one offered
by Dr Happer the other by
Dr Graves . Every thing went
off to the entire satisfaction
of the bride and groom who
said there was nothing that
they could have improved
upon. Mr Leaman told us
he was more than satisfied
that he had not made one
suggestion and that every
thing was so nice I am
ever so glad they feel so for
it will be pleasant for them
to think of afterwards -
Lucy had some quite nice
presents and so useful all
of them - Mr Cunningham
gave them beautiful straw
carpet enough tp cover three
large rooms. Hattie and I
a set of tea [?poys?] - marked
with her initial letter. She had three
sets of salt sellars silver from
different people - A table cover
and brush. [Illegible] -vases

etc etc. I told her she was going out
as the Israelites did from Egypt
carrying away more than she
brought .She came with a box
and trunk and packages of one kind
and another . They left Wednes-
day afternoon the day after they
were married at 4 P.M. Your
spatter work picture - No zero no
crown and God bless our [u]Home[/u]
got here just at the right time
and were all right . We are
looking just a little for our
[u]box[/u] when Henry comes but if
he does not bring it Dr Kerr
who will be here by the middle
of Feb can. We are so delighted
that he is really coming back
into the hospital. You do not
know how much we need
him - The last mail brought
letters from Dr Ellinwood in
answer to the resignation of Dr
Carrow. He resigned his salary
only it seems but Dr E-- said he
should be very careful when the
matter went through that meeting
of the trustees that his connection
with the Board should be [u]severed[/u]
entirely .It was an exceedingly
plain letter was [?sort?] open to the



[注:&c 转录为 etc] 之后有一点社交时间,
然后 Happer 医生读了一首赞美诗,
我们有两个祈祷,
一个由 Happer 医生提供,
另一个由 Graves 医生提供。
每件事都让新娘和新郎完全满意,
他们说他们没有什么可以改进的。
Leaman 先生告诉我们,
他对自己没有提出任何建议感到非常满意,
而且每件事都非常好,
我很高兴他们感到如此,
因为他们事后想起来会很愉快——露西有一些非常好的礼物,
而且所有这些都非常有用——坎宁安先生给了他们漂亮的稻草地毯,
足以覆盖三个大房间。
海蒂和我一套茶包——标有她的首字母。
她有三套来自不同人的银盐窖——一个桌盖和一把刷子。
[难以辨认] - 花瓶等。
我告诉她她要出去,
就像以色列人从埃及一样,
带走的东西比她带来的要多。
她带着一个箱子、一个箱子和一个又一个的包裹来。
他们在结婚后的第二天下午 4 点离开。
你的飞溅作品图片 - 没有零没有皇冠,
上帝保佑我们的家在正确的时间来到这里,
一切都很好。
当亨利来的时候,
我们正在寻找我们的盒子,
但如果他不带它,
克尔博士将在 2 月中旬之前到达这里。
我们很高兴他真的回到了医院。
你不知道我们多么需要他——最后一封邮件是埃林伍德医生写的一封信,
答复卡罗医生的辞职。
他辞掉了他的薪水,
只是看起来,
但 E 医生说,
当这件事通过董事会会议时,
他应该非常小心,
应该完全切断他与董事会的联系。
这是一封非常简单的信,
