  • Oct. 4th 1888, 2.30 P.M. Well, the mail has come and brought the photos, and we have just gotten through our first fits of admi- ration and complementing. Indeed we think they are perfect--so very good for a 5 weeks baby. Both the Mother and baby are taken splendid- ly. The look so life-like, we feel like speaking to them. The babe looks exactly like you did when you were its age. This is our united opinion. Both baby and moth- er look so sweet we can compare them to nothing but Rapheal’s sistine Madonn a. How we would love to see them face to face. Be sure to make your arrangements so that you can visit us next summer. We must see you all. The mail also brought me a le- tter from the treasurer of Barthol- omew Co. Ind. He says he knows of no person by the name of Kephart in the county; but he says there is a man by the name of W. Gebhart living near Auburn, Ind. Certain it is, however, that he is no kin of ours. I enclose the note from the old Bible as copied by Belle. We are all well. Your mother is busy canning pears. Fruit is very abun- dant this year. Belle is busy with her studies. They are Geog. of the Heavens, Nat. Theology, Mathemat- ical Philosophy, and German. She is progressing finely. We all send our love to all, Affectionately, I.L. Kephart. P.S. A Mr. Barnes of Westerville, Ohio, brother to our Lady Principal and a very fine sensible, cultured gentleman, well ad- vanced in his studies is now one
