Hello, Auntie and Cousins: Will you all
accept the visit Of Georgia lad OF
eighteen years? I've heard the saying,
There's no harm in trying" so I'll try
you all and see how I'm received. Hey,
Elmer Bridges! Your letter about birds was
grand, but why did you especially choose
the bird? I'm sure there isn't anything
about birds that's any sadder than the cry
of a lamb when it's mother has been killed,
or it's mate. Can you recall how precious
the sheep were in the ancient times? Don't
think, cousins, because L talk that way thai
haven't any soft spot in my heart; or
really have, but 1 believe in considering the
welfare of one thing as well as another.
Wait, Aunt Julia; I'm only going 70 ask
favor of the cousins: If any of You have
the song entitled Forever and Forever"
please send it to me. 4 am farm boy. l

moments? There's way to fill them. up.
Just seat yourselves and write me letter.
