Dear J. A.
How are you getting along? We
are all O.K. Daddy is on the war-path again - mad.
I passed in every-thing
in school except Science, and I made 62 on that
There has been a lot of dying here lately and around.
King Mitchel got cut to pieces the last Thurs. by a train. He was in the
Army. The Army wouldn't let anyone open the casket. Olan Dawson got
killed at least we heard he did, a machine gun backfired.

We are sending your ring. Ruby and Otis were up here Sun. They all
went to Vesta's. I went to Wright City and stayed all evening with
another girl. I don't know much to write so I guess I had better close.
Love; Your Sis,
P.S.
