Dear Sister

Who got in for Reeve and councillors in Derby this year did Tommy [?] run for keeve this year I suppose Bill Johnston will be making a great wedding spread old Ress will think her chance is good yet when Teeny caught a man I have got no news I am hardly away from the farm we are having fine weather and I am well that is about all that I can write about
