Cordelia Williams writes that she talked to Dan the previous day and it was a happy surprise. She describes a meeting of her missionary group where not many people came because so many in the group were sick or put off by the rain. She asks if Virginia was having trouble swallowing. She writes about the weather and how it is affecting her garden. Ren Taylor has been hospitalized but was sent home and told to rest. Cordelia ends by saying she hopes that the recipient watches "Geri" as the recipient has carried a heavy load a long time and should let "Geri" catch up.
