Write, I beg of you and set our fears at rest. The papers have carried such dreadful stories. It is hard to know what to believe. Nr. Wells has been so kind. He has kept US constantly informed of your condition. You have written of him in such a way that your father and I had come to regard him as struggling young man, with a meager income.
