Sara:
We have just come out of camp, all afloat from the tremendous rain of last night, Gen and all wet through, slept in the mud -- just got in the dry and just got your Blue Letter, and just wrote to Nelson, and just opened this that I had sealed & add this postscript -- and hope the sun has come out to you and the skies are brighter --
