i received your letter
to day with the nice envelopes all stampd
so nicely i feel as if i ougth to write
a nice letter the first that i saw of
those stamped enpelopes
i dident
know whether they were the lawful
or bogus ones i sent Edd next door
when Mr ray
kept a jewelery store
to get some and he got those and i
was so green i had to ask george
if they would go and to tease me
he told me letters wouldent go
with them envelopes i told him
i gave 4 cent a peice for them and they
ought to be good then he said he gessd
theyed go i am glad to hear
you have been so well this summer
walter it is quite warm here and
terribly dusty i am in hopes it will
rain as it has the appearance of it
george
has been to the country for
three days he went up in the glen
cove boat to roslin and went out
sailing and fishing and had a
pretty good time
i believe whethe
his gal
went with him or not i
dont know he got back sunday
night and is inspecting on the small
pipe to day as the large has not come
yet he and mr Lane
seems to get along
very well jeffy wrote to me after he was
home that george would not be
discharged as long as mr Lane was
there
george might save something
i think if he was saving but these bad
gals and amusements takes the green
he s saving enoughf toward me
i know i dont know how he would
be if you didint send me so much
but i think i shouldent get along
so well if i depended altogether
on him) O walt i feel sometimes
like the irish when you give em
any thing they always say long may you live and
be blessed) but i dont know as i ought
to complain of george he dont know how
much it takes to keep house he is very
good to me so long as i dont interfere
with his affairs) the house
is getting along
very well they are putting up the stairs now
so you dident like your new place as well
as the old one
well a person will get attached
to any place where they live a long time)
i am pretty well now i have been troubled with a pain in my side but i put mustard on and it is better but very sore) walter dear if you send me a money order next week i wish you would put a dollar in with it
good by walter deari am glad you have set the time to come
i think the prices must be in the country as i havent seen them lately
