Dear Mrs. Eckstorm,

It was good to see you. I assume you are back home now, [?] will be.

After you left I was picking about that [?] a little, + get some scent of a field word in it. The-is-[?] but might go with grass + that sort, bushes. We hear [?], a field. [?] Cotton [?], ( a village) [?] [?]- [?] [?] [?], chop Kaskam, short cut.

The origin idea has weakened somewhat on me. Its the formal form [?] that doesn't quite sink away.

Among personals we have [?], + [?], 1651, wife of [?] in Maine, + there are some [?] - forms. [?] a woman was here in 1679. [?] was carried away by Weymouth in 1605.
