Another day gone - Nothing of importance has taken place.
Mr. Graham well. - Mrs. Wooding, though, was not able to
take her place in the school this p.m. She has taken a
cold & it seems to have settled in her chest. We are now
getting our mails ready, for outgoing steamers, but as

- yet, we have not received the mails that should have been
in the first of the month. Tonight we had guava jelly
for supper & it-was delicious. Made today. Good-night.
Stephen & Sop.

We thought the mails had te go today, and we worked hard
to get them off. But the P.M. Said they did not have to
be in until Monday. Tonight the train was so late we

did not go to get the mails, and we were expecting letter:
from home too. Good night ~ All well -

This a.m. while eating breakfast Mr. Pinnock brought
several letters for Sophie and some for me we were glad
to get them they were about 2 weeks late ~ one from her
Mother & Lilla ~ one from Anna Baker & one from Flora.

We had a pleasant time reading - that is Sophie read and
told me all that I ought to know - she said - and I
engoyed it too. I of course enjoyed mine but they were
all business. The floors were scrubbed, bread baked &c =
& preparations made for Sunday ~ Good night - I shall have
to perform some surgical operations on-toe-nails-now.

At the morning service I read the hims and scripture in
Congo & called on two of the Christian boys for prayer
Mr. Graham made the address ~ ag I did not dere attenpt
it I can chat a little with the boys - but I don't dare
make a speech er preach a sermon. In the pem. It was Mr.
G's turn I did not attend - as I felt awfully tired, but
after a little nap and a walk in the cool evening air I
felt refreshed & O.K. Goodnight.
