Nicoll Floyd Elmendorf to Hattie Elmendorf,, 1877, Sunday Eve [1

Four boxes of good things arrived from home. His arm is rapidly gaining strength. He hopes to use it as much as ever in a few months. He has had a sick headache for three days, and hopes to work it off on one of his pleasant little strolls up to Bound Brook and back, about fourteen miles in 2 {bd} hours. The Choral Society is rehearsing Mendelsohn's opera Loreley for a pre-commencement concert.
