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.
Description: Letters concerning Indian languages, culture, and history.
