dc.description.transcriptionBrenham, Texas. June 7, 1883. My dear Sallie, Yours and Addie’s letters of the 4th just this minute received. I write you rather hurridly now, and shall try to find time to write him tomorrow. I am feeling rather blue today, and the condition of matters at home does not help me any. I fear that baby will give you a great deal of trouble. Addie must help all that he can about everything. Jessie must be very careful. If she continues to be puny, she had better stop her music. I cant think of anything that Bro. Jim can be possibly offended at. He may have heard some of the many complaints made by some of the patrons, but he need not be downhearted at that. I think they are perhaps regretting their move. Our meeting is moving on slowly. It is with great effort that I keep up to the preaching point. Having so many calls to other points make me exceedingly restless. I feel like I might do so much more good at other points. There are so many things to interfere in these towns. At Austin their schools were closing out doing our meeting, and kept all the young people from meeting; and it is the same condition of things here this week. I hope that next week we shall have a better time. But one week is nearly gone, and nothing done. I shall go on a visit to the country tomorrow. I do not know how long I shall continue here. I would like to go to Uvalde before I go home. If we do not have any accessions by Sunday I shall feel very much like giving up the work and going somewhere else. The brethren here, however, will insist on my remaining over another Lord’s day. I may get so homesick that I shall come home as soon as I get through here. Tell Addie that he must be a man, and do all that he can while I am from home. Love to all, Addison
