I am not satisfied here and don't think I would be anywhere away from you all. I am going to try to work me out a horse this winter if I can keep able long enough. A man need not be idle no time of the year if he is able to work. Work on farms is 15 to 20 dollars per month from now until time to chop cotton, then it is one dollar per day and board. A man can get a dollar cash for chopping cord wood from now til spring.
Cotton picking is about over here.
That is the best thing to do to make money at. Here it lasts from 3 to 4 months. Cotton has been low here this year. Hub and Sister wants me to live with them this winter. Sometimes I have a notion of undertaking to make a crop with Hub.
