Well Gladys I gess you will think I have forgotton to rite I havent had time to rite, I have been mooving around so much but I’m gitting along O.K. How is all the peopel around home that was so sick, I hope there are all well by this time. What is Earnest doining I havent herd from him for a long time, what kind of weather are yous having around Sundridge now, I suppose lots of snow we havent had eny snow yet and very little frost, the grass is green here yet, what is your Dad and Frank doing this Fall did they git eny deer this Fall,
