Sister brought home a supply of autumn leaves and we found some blue bells so we will send you some. Aunt Larla? Laura? & I are in partnership on circus day & she is going to make some generous snaps & I am going to get some candy from the store. Page 2 This has been a very chilly day so we have a bright fire. We miss you very much and I hope it won't be long before you will be with us for I am ???? to see you. If I make money on circus day and I will have almost enough money to get my gun. I recon I will get a second handed handed one. Aunt Lula? made some salt using bread and it was very nice. We are getting in our winter wood now. I am very sleepy now so good night precious Mother.
