My dear Esther

I left St Luke's yesterday and we came up here to Nikko in the mountains where I am sure I will make a good recovery, every thing has gone extremely well so far. We are sailing on Aug 23d and should be in Chicago just about a month later. I suppose by that time Louise's baby will have come. Of course I will be responsible for two years for Eri, so do not wait until I come back for making his plans. [page 2]

This is my first day of letter writing and the muscles of my right arm are naturally a little [shaky], but the letter contains much love to all the family, including the new baby when it comes.

Always your loving aunt

Jane Addams
