Writes in answer to Ogden's letter informing her of her son, Edwin B. Penel's, illness. Says she has lost her husband, and she feels as if her heart will break, knowing that her son is very ill. Says she wishes he could come home, and would like his corpse sent home if he dies. She plans on writing Edwin a letter and begs Ogden to read it to him if he is incapable.
