Dearest Auntie and Cousins: I wonder If
you will admit me into your happy circle
again. l have written before and received
many good letters. l answered all, but am
sorry to say do not get as many now as
did then. They have just quit writing. 1t
seems that most of the cousins live on a
farm / live there Also but cannot say that
i like it better than think l would like
it in the city. Both have their advantages.
| guess most OF the cousins are in school
now. l surely hope so. To get an educa-
ton is my ambition, and l think everybody
should have At least a high school educa-
tlon. Come on, cousins, with your letters,
for stand ready with pen and paper and,
best of ALL plenty Of time, to answer Love
and best wishes Your niece and cousin,
