Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins:
Nav come in for a little chat? l
have written once before, didn't see
it in print, so I guess Mr.. Waste
basket knows where it went. Cous-
ms, 1 enjoy your letters so much.
They are all so interesting. You all
seem to be having such jolly time,
l couldn't just sit back and be con-
tent to just look on any longer. l
live on a farm and like it fine. L
keep house, and read for pastime. l
certainly enjoy reading good books.
NV favorite authors are Harold Bell
Wright and Zane Grey. 1 guess
most of you cousins are going to
school now. We have a beautiful
new school building here in the
county, although L finished common
school in the old one. Berry school
is near Rome. 1t certainly is a fine
school for boys and girls. I want
to go there next year. Shorter col
lege is also near Rome. How many
of you cousins like to go opossum
hunting? I do. Come to see me
and we will all go, and what good
time we will have! Well I must
close for this time. I won't de-
scribe myself, but my age is be-
tween eighteen and twenty-one. Let
sers will be appreciated from any OF
the cousins, and will answer all.
Your new cousin,
MAGGIE MOORE.
