Dorr
January 17, 1890

Dear Father [Lyman Cooper]

I sit down this evening to write you a few lines to let you know we are well and have got moved back at Dorr. I got home that same night you went back to the Sanitarium and was very much disapointed on not seeing you at home as I herd you was home on a visit before I got there.

Well pa we got your letter and was surprised to here that you had an operation and ma [Helen E Cooper] and all of us are worried about you and you must let us know how you are getting a long. They all told me when I got home that pa was getting well that you looked better than you had in five years. It made me feel so good. I can’t express my feelings and ma has told me so many times she thought pa was going to get well now as there was a great change in you now. If you don’t get along you must let us know. I was over home to day every thing is all lovely.

Will is changeing. Works with George sawing wood so they will get some wood a head. Well my Dear pa, it is getting late and I must close.

From your daughter,
Nellie [Florence Cooper Rasmusson], age 30
Good night. Write soon.
