Bergen May 13 98
Your mother is better, sleeps better, eats better, less nervouse. We hope she has passed the worst. Is in bed now, likes it better than a cat she unreadable. Monday or Tues Dr will set the bone & put it in plaster Paris cast. Then we expect she can move around more. Hope she is to be better now. Blanche's good letter rec'd yesterday. Frank will come down Sunday to see unreadable
Lovingly, T. J. T.
Catherine D. Spafford (1836-1916) ("mother") would have been 61 years old at the time.
