Dear Lizzie:

 

I thought I would answer your letter to night as it is too early to go to bed.  I have been working to J. B. Watson’s today.  Lauty has got the mumps.  I expect to have them next but I can’t come down for three weeks so I am going to work in his place till he gets well.  If you come up Friday night, come in the store.  I want to see you before the dance. I hope you will come.  I want to have a good time till I have the mumps.  I don’t think I will go to the dance unless you come up.  How is school this week.  I presume you won’t get this letter till you come up yourself but I hope some one will send it to you.  Well Lizzie I am getting sleepy so I will bid you good by for this time

 

Ever Yours

L.W.M.
