ADDRESSED TO: Mrs. Hellen Stage, Mansfield, Tioga Co., Pa
FROM: Emma L. Darling, Covington, Pa., Oct. 26, 1891
Covington, Monday Oct 26, 91

Dear Friend Ella,

Editor’s note: This points to Emma Darling having known Helen Wood when she was very young as the use of “Ella” falls off over time.

I will write you a few lines this afternoon, to inform you that those papers you left here have both been executed and are on the way to Washington. Father went up to Uncle Henrys yesterday. And Henry came down this morning. Mrs. Dike came home last evening, and signed the paper this morning. I hope all other evidence may be furnished as promptly. Hoping your Mother may soon be better, We remain your true Friends.
Write often and let us know how you are.

Yours Truly,
Emma L.Darling.
