Transcription	Pa is not here to join me in love but I�ll [serve] as you will hear from him yourself. Your loving Ma. S.G. Bernard Providence 6.7. 73 My darling �Alumnus� Your two letters to Pa and I were duly recd last week and we feel happy and congratulate you upon the prospect of the �sheep skin� and your respectable grade in scholarship but far above all your moral standing and gentlemanly deportment gives us pleasure and happiness. The only uneasiness expressed by your Pa was in regard to your standing higher in German than in French as I believe he has a horror of anything German, so I advise you to speak French mostly at home- especially to Pa. Dr. Waddell replied promptly and fully to your Pas letter and in kindest terms of our dear boy. Pa wished to write to the Dr. any way explaining that business matters had promoted him from visiting the university & c feeling that it really looked strange that in the 3 years he had not been present at any of your exs- and your letter [illegible word] him an excuse to write. I have not sent you the papers because Ive no stamps will have some this week. I hope I am making you some fine domestic drawers write immediately and say shall I send them; I think you would find them pleasant for [illegible word] cement [ninie] Goodrich spent Saturday night and part of Sunday last with us. Mr. G. & Pilcher took breakfast with us and all went to church together. Last Wednesday we bade a mite on [Wharf] Boat few attended but it was a delightful party �Lizzie� drove down to the boat left her contributions and returned home herself and mother spent part of next day with me. It appears Liz and Annie [Shelby] feel slighted at last mite and Liz concluded she would not attend another. Weve had constant company for some time but I suppose the hote summer will prevent much more I have so little strength and poor servants I do not enjoy anything much. I was right sick the last letter I wrote you constant fever for days and days but have missed it for a week and feel better now. Do be very careful of your dear self- Cholera is in Vicksburg & Memphis and cases here occasionally. Pat McCormac�s wife taken sick Friday night died before morning any excess seemed to bring it on. Great many complaining in that way but seem able to check it by taking it in time. It is best to be prepared with medicine and that is what we wish you to be get something from Dr. Isom.
