    Dear Minnie,
    I have just rec'd a letter from Nettie Miller saying that you are quite sick. I am very sorry after being so long without hearing from you that the news is not more encouraging, but hope you will soon be better and able to write to me, youself. We are all very well; the three older boys are going to school and our little Mary has just been to school to day for the first time. Besides these four in school we have two younger boys at home; little John whom you have seen and little Fred whom you have not seen. He is a very nice baby 6 1/2 months old. I hope your little Frankie is well and growing nicely. He is now almost 5 years old and I suppost almost big enough for school. We have just shut down the Brooklyn Refinery and discharged all the men except two engineers that we keep for watchmen. I suppose I shall still be employed by the company but what I shall have to do or where I shall have to live I don't know. As there is nothing more to do in Brooklyn I suppose I shall move to New York or Edgewater where the new works are. Your Uncle S.B. Driggs has been quite sick for some weeks the Doctors think dangerously so but I hope he may live some time yet. They think he has disease of the heart. Remember me to Archie and kiss little Frankie for me. Keep up your courage and let me hear from you as often as you can.

    Your affectionate
    Uncle Hiram
