Dear Aunt Julia: 1t has been wisely said
by some one, eff you at first don't sue
coed try again. so L am trying again,
this is my third effort to write you and
the circle of cousins. L am twelve years
young and daddy says he wants me to stay
a little girl until l am twenty. Mother
died when L only two months old, from
heart failure, from shock caused by me
falling from the bed one night. 1t often
makes me think of Jesus dying for the
love He had for others. I live in the foot
hills OF north Georgia, at New Hope, where
johnson and Sherman engaged in very
bloody struggle during the War Between
the States The trenches are our play
ground while at school l am in the sixth
grade and will be so glad when our sum-
mer term of school begins. 1 am a farmer
and enjoy it SO much. You see, l help do
many errands; such garden work, feed
ing and caring for the chickens, washing
dishes, any thing, most of the house work,
and this makes me farmer. l am surely
learning to play the piano, so ! hope to
soon be able to play for Aunt Julia and
the cousins. Some OF them should call
to see me. Now. Aunt Julia, be mindful
of this time and give seat in the
circle. Would like to hear from some of
the cousins. Your loving niece,
JAYNELLE WOODDALL.

No matter where on earth you roam.
