I have written two letter already to-day, and
am beginning to get a little tired of writing,
but I want to try and fill this side yet, if I can.

I received a letter from Aggie, and one from Sophie
the same day with yours; they were both well. The
latter is still at Mr. Fenby's, but expects
to go to Baltimore, and stay with Mrs. Newton Willis
in a week or two. Aggie was at Mr. Cook's when
she wrote, but I suppose by the time you receive
this, she and Anne Cook will be at New Castle,
if nothing happens. I do not know how long
they intend to stay, so that I am not sure that
I shall see Aggie while I am in town. I
expect she will not remain long after the first of Sept.
She has written to me several times since she
has been in Howard Co. but as she was
usually in a hurry, non of them were
very lengthy epistles. It is nearly school-time,
and I must close. Good bye.

I remain, as ever,
Your affectionate sister
Carrie
