Now In Sunny Florida.
Manager Clarion:

Dear Sir:
Mr. Lee started to write to you but
backed out, said he is too shaky to write;
will write later if he gets steady enough.
am sending dollar to renew our
subscription to the Catoctin Clarion.
Being in the sunny land of Florida has
not taken away our interest in Thurmont
and we like the weekly visit of the Clar-
ion.
1t has been unusually warm here all
this month and quite dry. The orange
and grapefruit crop is ripening and is in
need Of rain. The trees are well filled
with fruit but it looks small to me for
lack of rain. There are a good many
groves around Orlando and quite large
acreage set in young trees not yet in
bearing Orlando is very pretty city
paved with brick streets and shaded
with large oak trees hung with Spanish
moss 1t is city 50 years old of about
l3,0Oo population; has several pretty
lakes within the city limits. Orlando is
growing fast and property and rents are
very high. We have been to see St.
Cloud, the old soldier city. and think we
will enjoy the winter there better than
here, so we leave here next Friday 3lst,
to 60 to St. Cloud where we expect to
remain all winter. We are feeling
pretty well, but do not care to be out in
the sun much. The hottest part of the
day the thermometer gets up to near 80
degrees or more. There is usually a
breeze so one can be quite comfortable
in the shade. We enjoy it better than
we do ice and snow.
Yours truly,
Mrs. H. G. Lee,
St. Cloud, Florida.
