Letter #4
My dear beloved husband,
I have left writing to the last hoping that I might be able to tell you that our darling is better. I grieve to say I am not able to say so with any certainty. I am in so much anxiety that I feel difficulty to write with calmness. The Dr. seems to be uncertain as to what is the malady she is suffering from. The principal symptoms now is fever she had severe fancies in the head and that she cannot bear any light in the room. Dr. Helmcken fears inflammation of the brain.....
