be seeking in a newspaper office,
and finally, in broken English, she
made her wants known. Would l,
she asked, write a letter to her
daughter for her. All the carnival
folks were busy, and she couldn't
write. When consented, she pulled
from the pocket of her voluminous
skirt two sheets of lined tablet pa

and prepared to write a tender
motherly message. couldn't have
been more mistaken.
AS the old woman dictated, her
eyes snapped with anger as bitter
words poured out in her broken
accent. Tina, her daughter, Jack
sonville, Florida fortune teller, il
seemed, had run the mother away
from home after the fathers death.
Since then, the writer bade me tell
her daughter, she had seen nothing
but trouble. She had been sick and
nobody would take her to a doctor.
She wasn't making any N oney, and
her sons wife had left him and her
family wanted $1,000 to allow the
erring wife to return. Again and
again the fortune teller asked me
to write. "You were mean to me.
You not good daughter. am cry

she repeated that she sent her re-
CARDS to her grandchildren and had
me name each one, but there were
no loving words for her daughter.
When I asked her if she were sure
that she wanted to send such a
bitter letter, she replied that she

for all the bad things she had done
to her. At the end she had me

When I had finished the letter

"You come out to carnival / tell
you more" Then with "God bless
you, honey" she left.
