Message: Dear Nina, I am sure you like those [Mrs.] and Drs. now, you had to go back in to see them. It's a good place to go when you don't feel good anyway. Remember these old fellows, we saw at the Peabody Museum last year? I took Georgie, and Sunny down the other day to see it. He worked this forenoon for a lady, mowing her lawn. No other work in sight yet. Get better soon. Please try hard to eat. Love Elizabeth & all.
