I will bring Mabel with me. I guess lesses will keep Blanchie. dick said thay could kep her untill she was of age. and him and his wife signed an article of Agreement too that effect. Thay said thay could not give her up since pa had gone. I would like too have brought them both for I do think thay aught too be toogather.

Oh you dont know how I miss him. it just seems as tho he ought too open the dore and step in. Well I will close and will write again soon. Now write soon and I will tell you all when I come. so good by. Pa would have started up thare on Tuesday befor he was buried if he had of lived. but oh how diferant.
