C.C. WILLARD.

Washington, D.C.

so hard as I used to & have
more time to myself.

Lucy Hutton is in town,
she is staying with her sister,
who lives on S. St. I called
to see her yesterday evening.
I am very sorry to
hear that Aunt Lise is having
such a hard time. I
wish we could help her, yet
we are so poor ourselves that
we cannot do much. I fear,
towards relieving her. I am
glad to hear from Sidney
that he is doing a little
better. I wish he could
have employment in a more
civilized part of the world it
must be very lonesome for him
