I got a card this morning from Loena and a letter from Maude Clarks wife, I got your dear letter it was written so nice the first one yet I do prize them, and I thank God for you when I get them to so you have a little Kittie is a Tiger. So you have a kitten adn a kitchen. I had a letter from Clark after he was up to see you he said Charlie Metz was there to see you and Bro, Long has been to see you I am so glad did it seem good, it is a beautifull day here I have the Windows up, I went to meeting yesterday it was so good, May the dear Lord comfort you dear Ma He will if you Praise Him, love from Emily
