Dear Mother—Received your letter sometime ago. Glad to hear from you. We are all well as usual. Had a nice letter from Clara. Haven't answered it yet. Flora is home from school yet. She hasn't one but thinks she will get one. Don't know if I can get down to see you this fall or not. Our house is just out of sight, but will match X in the driveway, and mark & for Laura Jackson's house. She is well. I will write you a letter sometime. I am very busy and tired most of the time. Johnnie Yagu is here but isn't as much work. Gertrude is in bed fast asleep. Write when you can. With love, deine R. F. L. Southwick Mass.
