| Transcript | 454 West 43 St. New York 11 Jany [January?] 93 [1893?] Dear Robt [Robert?] Your letter of the 18th Dec [December?] reached me in due time. I was sorry to hear that you had not been well, but hope you are all right again. I would have liked to have seen you when you went 2 weeks without shaving. I don't suppose Frank would have let you in if you had went there on Sunday, he would not have known you. The weather has been very cold here for a couple of weeks past, & we have a foot of snow on the ground, last night the temperature went down to zero + it is almost as cold today. I wish it was summer again, as it is much pleasanter. I hope you enjoyed the "bar" of the "Melmore". It is very convenient sometimes to have a refuge of that sort. There is nothing strange here since I wrote you before, Murphy has not returned + I never hear a word about him, no more thatn if he had never been there. Old Sloane is very sick again + is not expected to live long at the best. He had a bad spell over a month ago + was in the house a long time, but came out one day last week + went to the lumber yards, + went home + took to his bed, + for a couple of days was not expected to live. But the old fellow is tough. Still he is not the same as he was; he has lost heart + feels that he is done. I must not forget to thank you for all the papers you sent me. You give yourself altogether too much trouble sending so often, one once in a while when anything unusual occurs is enough. I must send you one once in a while. I am kept so busy that I have not much time now but must not forger my old friends. Wm [William?] and Richd [Richard?] wish to be remembered to you. Don't forget to write Yours as ever S. Kane. |
