Received her letter Friday afternoon. Lou has been sick but is feeling better. Jane left recently. She wanted him to give her more money, but he decided against it. Rubens is selling his farm because he is leaving it in the spring. She should tell Olivia that Lou has "a compliment for her." He showed a friend her picture and the friend said she was so good looking he could not believe they were sisters. Written at Camp Parapet.
