Je pense que vous avez bien recu toutes mes cartes. Je suis en bonne santé et j'attends avec impatience le bon vouloir de ces beaux Messieurs pour rentrer. Je crois qu'ils ne se pressent pas vite et je trouve."

I dare say are you will receive them at your name day celebration which I had the pleasure to spend with you, but in case I cannot attend, you have all my sympathy. I think you have received all my postcards. My health is good and am anxiously waiting for these handsome gentlemen to let me travel back home. I believe they are in no hurry."
