Letter from Margaret Lyman on communication and the weather
Union Falls, Feb. 9th 1883
Rev. H. Lyman
South Granville Washington Co. N.Y.
My Darling Husband,
Since writing before, I have read nothing from you & have nothing of much importance to say, I hope to get a letter from you, by the mail, this A.M. If you remain where you are long enough so that you will write again to me perhaps it would be well for you to direct_ via Ansable Forks & Black Brook & it may come more directly instead of going as signed by Malone. On Sunday [?] came by the last mail & as you requested me to send you one; I will do so. If I knew certainly that you would return next week I would not send it but you [?] I think it possible that you might remain another week.
I think that both of us looked quite sober when it was taken. We are having more snow it seems almost as if Hennar's 'big snow storm' had come. Hope the roads will not be so bad that you will have any trouble getting back. We are all about as usual. Little family has been at my elbow while I have been writing. It is time to expect the stage & I must close.
May our Heavenly Father have you in His holy care & keeping is the prayer of your Margaret.
