how are you by this time i got your letter on saturday we are all about the same we have had very cold weather here indeed george came home again last saturday night he had to come to see about the property he sold to mrs stears as there is assesments found against the property and Lott wrote to him to see to it immediately so he came on so much for mr greenwood s search and when stears bought it   he had Lott to make a searsh i gess they dident searsh very deep george went back this morning by th 7 oclock train he left it for Lott to settle against he come again it will be considerable to pay) mrs stears was here the other day she dont seem to get along very well her son is discharged from the water board with many others there is very many out of employment this winter george says any time that its conveinent for you walt to pay   that money you had of him he aint in a hury for it if you come on in febuary that will be time enoughf or after that) i sent han the letter i spoke of when george was home before and the 5 dollar he gave me for her) and to day i received one of mr Heydes epistles rather the worst one i have received yet i looked it over and threw it in the stove the most insulting but let it go)

i have not heard any thing more from maty whether she is coming   or not the weather is so cold it will bee quite an undertaking to come so far)

i am about as usual quite smart only i got up so early to get georges breakfast that i feel stupid enoughf)

i hope this will find you well walter dear
