Dear Cousin

hear from you and happy to hear about
Fone & Jake coming out here and wish that
you could come out with them
Sina I cannot go back with them for
Hank is at home now and you better
believe I am happy and more and
now I shall look for them at the time
you said they would be here Emelie
wants them to come so bad to
Elick is also to home. Cos I am down
at fathers most of the time since Hank
came home we just come from there
yesterday and are going down there again
in about half an hours.
Now Cos I have not time to write much
I had a letter from Eliza last week and she said
that she had writen agreat many letters to
me this summer without any reply and
the reason I never recieved them this is the
first letter that I have had from her since
last Spring. Now Cos you must come
