Hello Emma. I suppose you think I am not going to answer you letter but I will as soon as I get a little time, for we as busy picking berries just now, but you will likely see Laura and she will be able to tell you all the news, for she will be going back to her school pretty soon. We were so glad to see Auntie & Laura and enjoyed their visit. Give my love to all.
Your Loving Coz. Bessie
