My dear Henry
Mama 1 had a very bad & restless night, but is quieter now – & Dr Holland 2 who was here this morning, thinks her a little better. Aunt Louisa 3 is here with me now helping to nurse her, & you know she excels in that art. Mama has none of that pain now but suffers very much from faintness & sickishness & is very weak –

Mama says she would like to see you & hopes you will come up tomorrow as you originally intended. Tho’ it is Sunday Aunt L. has undertaken to send this so that it shd reach you tomorrow morng & I shall expect you accordingly – but hope you may find her better –
Dr H. is very attentive & Wr[?] has slept here these 2 nights to be at hand.
