Expresses deep sorrow that one year ago "Your Dear Father lay suffering 'nigh onto death." Complains that due to all the parties and suppers this season she is often left home alone, but adds that "Grier says he is going to do better and stay at home more." Asks him not to tell Grier what she has written. Reports they are having the coldest winter in twenty years. States the Baptist meetings are still going on and prospering. Says that ten to twelve Methodists go by sleigh to a meeting almost every night. Grier continues the letter on 28 January 1865. Reports on a party he attended and lists the names of some of the guests.
