poetic, letters that I have received
in the past three months.
While approaching that I am many
years the senior of so many of the
dear cousins, I wish to say to one
and all, please accept my many
thanks.
Second, to all that sc. kindly re-
membered the old Florida widower
with their nice and valuable pres-
ents for the greatest day of remem-
berance, Christmas, and especially
to those who spent so much of their
valuable time and with loving hands
for their lovely handmade articles
Every one was so useful as well as
ornamental. They make my room
more enticing to enter where + spend
so many hours of rest. 49,
Now, cousins, l wish you were en-
joying our spring-lke weather. The
orange trees are beginning to put
forth the tiny little spots of blooms,
Soon the air will be filled with their
fragrance Oh, how I wish all Of
you could have the privilege of visit
ing our state at this time. The great
old state of Georgia would lose some
of her population, for she possesses
just the kind of letter writers that
Florida would like to add to her num-
Der one list of settlers. ..- 4
We have farms needing good
farmers to come and add to our
number of congenial hayseeds.
Before leaving, wish to thank Aunt
Julia for her kindness. I am sorry
the fancy box of oranges sent her.
Christmas was in such bad condi-
ton when she learned of its arrival,
but hope the last one gives her both
health and pleasure, and may she be
spared to be with US many more
Christmases and to be remembered
| by all.

and cousins,
