Nancy's grandmother writes that her grandfather is under care for his pains, probably at a hospital, but that he looks good. She mentions "they took his smokes away" and for Nancy to not work too hard and to take care of herself. She also warns her not to go anywhere on her own as "there is a lot of trouble everywhere." She closes by mentioning her birthday for which Nancy's parents gave her a cake and reminds her that she will write again soon.
