the promise

events spun a fast cocoon about her

hamstrung she hobbled through dark

Friendship on Fire

On March 8 and 9, 1896, my great-great-great grandmother, Susan Ferrington Johnston, mentioned laundry when she wrote to her granddaughter Maud Ferris (my great-grandmother) about how sick the little boy next door was. Scarlet fever is mentioned later in the letter, but this may have been typhoid.
