@letter_1003 -> mentions -> @thanksgivingFishkill on Hudson Dec. 30, 1896 My dear Lolla, Your photographs arrived safely and good condition in North Plains. One to thank so much for them and to say that they bring back to her very vividly old scenes in which she is so deeply interested, and old days—and now your work has brought back to her scenes which she was familiar with long before you were born. It is very sweet of you dear Lolla to send them. Mother has been very sick; she was taken with an attack of acute indigestion some two months ago—and never
fully recovered from it, at Thanksgiving time she was doing as usual, but had not really regained her strength. Then soon again she was taken in the same way and it has been my hard to bring back her digestive organs to working order. Indeed they are not in order yet. Mother watched dune sterns to deny for a little while in the first, and I hope will soon now be down for her meals—her strength is wonderful—and of course is always a great stand by in bringing her back to health again. We hope you are all well and send you our love and best wishes for a happy New Year.
