Dear Will,
I received a letter from Louisa�s daughter, lately, in answer to a Christmas I sent them, in which they tell me of their Father�s death. They said they would not be able to keep the home any longer, and had been preparing to move. In looking through their Mother�s boxes I had come across a package of old letters, which they thought I would like to have so sent them to me, and I send one to you knowing you will like go have it. It was written on Christmas night 1860 and speaks for itself. (See letter from Robt. E. Grimshaw to friend Louisa, I believe this is the letter referred to ~~JGF)
We are all well, and still enjoying the climate. There is a norther expected in a few hours, and then we may expect a day or two of disagreeable weather. We have had one or two since we came but they don�t last long.
We had a very happy Christmas, we were well remembered by all our children and feel that we are indeed blest. I am sporting a new bonnet, a present from my brother Will. Give our love to Marion, I hope her health is better this winter.
Your loving sister
Virginia Hunt
