From Alice Hubbard
Dearly beloved brother and sister
My love to you both remembered, hoping that you are well and yours, as I and mine are at this time... Sister Sarah of Yarmouth is dead, her son Robert Jackson is well; my husband saw him, being returned from the war after 4 years service under Col. Cromwell’ in all weh he hath not been maimed or wounded. When you send to us, send to my brother Thomas Hubbard's house in Freeman lane near Horsly down in Southwark, London.
