Dear Will,
Wow!! Only 6 more years! I can hardly wait! I hardly ever need to cry myself to sleep anymore; I've been so involved in politics and raising james that I am constantly exhausted!
Gibbs is still around, though Pintel and Ragetti left to go find Jack last week. Yesterday, Mary moved out and is set to marry John on Sunday. They are living in Mrs. Bradson's house, as she died on Thursday. Her funeral was very nice and now she's with her husband. If only I could say the same for myself!
Your son would like you to know that he loves you and he wants to play tag with you when you get home. For his birthday, I'm going to take him sailing with Joshamee. He says, "Bye for now. Come home soon!" I agree.
I love you forever,
Elizabeth
(and William James)
