By all means go




You have a frank generous and impulsive nature. Soon you will receive a letter offering you a life position. However think this matter over deeply before deciding as the person who write it is very deceitful. Beware of light (?) people as they will cause you trouble.
Two weeks from tonight you will receive a letter asking you to go for a ride. By all means go as you will meet some one who you have been wishing to see. This person will give you good news. You will be married at the age of twenty-five to a mechanic.

Dear Friend -
I want to thank you for the box of lovely flowers that you sent us at the time of the death of our little Ms. Helen Mae. How we miss her no one knows, inless they have passed through the same, but we know she is a little angel in Heaven where there will be no more suffering.
We will send you a photo of the flowers. (- ed. not included)

Dear Tallulah,
How are you doing? What have you been doing this summer? Have you been riding horses? How do you like being out of the city?
I'm doing well. I just graduated from college. Everyone else in my class is anxious to get a job. I just want some time off to enjoy life.
It's been a cool + rainy summer. Springs that are usually dry by August are full of water. It looks like a jungle here.
I'm going out of town the next couple days, if it quits raining, to get hay. I need about 100 bales.
Helen + I are leaving on Friday - August 4 - to go to the Michigan Womens Music Festival. We're taking Helen's neice with us this year. She's 12. She loves dance + theatre + stilt walking so I think she'll love the festival. There's lots of activities for everyone, including children. At the festival they have a big parade with costumes + puppets made at the festival + lots of people on stilts. Raven (?) , Helen's neice, is already good at dancing on stilts so I'm sure she'll be in the parade.
It was nice talking to you. I hope you are having lots of fun.

Love,
Kate
