My Dear Dr : -

Please find enclosed check for $75.00 which should
have come to you before. I am happy to tell you that I am coming home
very soon. Mr. S. E. Narton is on the way here now, and our work in
Galveston proper is finished. We are now at work on the mainland among
the farmers, putting them in a way to get in their early plant crops, and
distributing large quantities of clothing. But we have an excellent
force of help and they will accomplish these things rapidly. As soon as 
it is done we shall all go home.

Hoping this will find you well and happy, I am dear doctor,
always,

Cordially yours,

Clara Barton
