Dear Ma

Another opportunity affords itself 
for me to send a few lines home, although I 
wrote Nancy the other day, I have decided to  
avail myself of it, knowing that my letters 
are
^ anxiously looked for and joyfully received, 
indeed [I ought?] to consider myself of great 
importance, thought of and talked about 
every hour, is it me or my badness that is 
[Miss...?] of course it is my sweet self.  I tell 
you I feel "as swwet as peach" ['as...peach' underscored] this evening, 
I should like for you to see me, I'm as 
dirty as a p - i - g - hog, I mean my clothes 
are.  I bathe nearly every day. -
