My Dear Liz, I thought I would stay in the house this evening and write to you.  I was out bumming around the streets every night last week.  Lauty was up here all the week.  We went home Saturday night and I came back this morning.  Lauty went to work for J. B. Watson this morning in the Drug Store.  I changed my boarding place last week.  I am in three and one half blocks of my work now.

 

We are having nice cool weather now aren’t we?  I saw your Father & Mother on the street Saturday afternoon.  I didn’t work in the afternoon.  You don’t go to C’Ville often do you.  I haven’t seen you the last two times I have been home.  I would like to see you oftener but I can’t come to Dennison very well.  I wish I were working in Coopersville.  I am getting tired of it here.

 

Well Lizzie I have written all I can think of so I will say Good By.

(how do you like my shorthand)

Very Truly Yours

Let,,,,
