July 4, 1886 – Dear Sister, I am a ventilator that is making ladies wigs and front pieces.  May (Mary) was a hairdresser and taught me to do it so that I could work at home, then I have quite a connection among Father’s (Charles Daniel Juchau’s) customers for whom I do pearl stringing; there was not enough to keep me busy or I should not have taken up hair work.  Sometimes it keeps me busy to keep them both going for I do repairing in pearl stringing between times; the hair work I have from a store.  I have a very pleasant room, my window full of flowers and two canary birds and am quite happy so long as I have work enough to keep me from thinking.

Annie has taken up writing and music.  She teaches writing in private schools and she has four music pupils so she is busy too.  When we have a few hours to spare we go for a long ride into the country if we can or to the seaside.  It does us both good.  Give our kind love to Mrs. Laker and family.

October 29, 1886 – Dear Sister, Yesterday was quite a holiday here.  The French people have made the US a present of a statue called Liberty, for a lighthouse, it is placed on an island in the bay where all the vessels pass.  And yesterday it was unveiled, a large procession in the morning and there would have been fireworks on the island but it rained and spoiled it all. 

Remember us kindly to Robert.  We hear he is building a nice new house.  Are you going to live in it?
