Ames. Ia. July 13
Saturday Morn.

My dear husband,

I am
longing to hear from you
but the elements have been
against it. I hear there
is a possibility of getting
mail either to-day or tomorrow
& tho I suppose
there is one letter of
mine laying in the Office
for you I write again
this morning – so that you
may know that we are all
well and prosperous at this
