Henrietta Octavia Barnett to Jane Addams, January 1, 1928

Jany 1st 1928

Dear dear dear Friend

This note has no sort of purpose except to tell you that I love you, to beg you to take care of your body, & to ask you to dictate a letter [page 2] to tell me of your welfare.

The weather here is quite new -- I never remember -- icy gales, deep snow -- thick fog -- rain & freezing together, flooded miles, impassable roads -- and marooned villages.  It makes life very difficult. This letter is not worth 1½ except to get one from you! Yours ever

Henrietta O Barnett

[written at top of page 1]  I send you a few typed words about the photo of the Pines at Hampstead wh I posted to you on Dec 22d. Do you like it?
