Dear Father [George S. Thomas]:
I now sit down to write you a few lines to let you know we are all well and hope you are not worse but getting better. We didn’t get a letter from you this week yet. Pa the postal card that you wrote when ma was there laid in the sanitarium till you wrote your last postal card. Now I did you get that letter I wrote in regard to Timothy Parker if you didn’t I will ay he wanted you to write and tell him the date you was taken in the hospital. Iva? Thomas Morrel is dead. Died last Saturday evening. The doctors didn’t know what ailed him. Pork is cheap $450 a hundred last Saturday couldn’t contract it at that grand price? Folks is all well and aunt Stella too. The apples come to $31.50.
Well I cant think of any more to writ so good by with love and a kiss from ma and I.
PS ma went down and settled with Frank ? got the money all right.
