. . . I sew all day, and am busy with housekeeping; never go
out, scarcely; have not paid a visit anywhere for months. At night, after the
noisy children are asleep, I read a little, or hear Mr. P. read; and so the
days pass. I think a great deal about my father and sister, and am about to try
to get a letter to them thro' General Jackson.
