Beth, I'm Afraid You Are Going to Have Scarlet Fever, Cried Jo.

Beth has been over the baby every day for more than a week, and among the others who are going to have it. I'll call hannah. She knows all about sickness. Don't let amy come. She never had it, and i should hate to give it to her. Can't you and meg have it over again? Asked beth anxiously. Serves me right selfish pig to let you go and stay writing rubbish, myself, muttered.
