To Miss Taft

we are just getting out after being snowed in for two day.

Thanking you very much for Ronald Xmas presents. He recieved so many things for Xmas he hasent read them yet. We had a card + short letter from Miss wood's

yes it was a Kerosene heater that walker woman had. So I knew you had one and did like to say anything.

The Miss + Dr walker are still in hospital with private room with two beds in it and private nurse Mrs May Tompkins Cowan. there not out yet and don't know when thay will be. I heard the other that the Dr walker would be in hospital three month. and figured miss susie wasent burnt so bad she be out of the hospital before this but isent yet.

No the Pheleps have been home since two weeks before Xmas.

oh yes thank for beautiful hanky. it sure was pretty.

and hurrah, the sweater is done. and only a little small ball of yarn left. that pattern wasent such a good pattern to go by when got to sleeves. my sister and I both had time with them I made them by directions and were away to small & short. So raveled them out and my sister started kniting them the way she would. and thay were all right. I done more raveling then kniting for a while But sure is a nice heavy sweater.

I am sorry you think cows are a bill of expence to you but that happens to even old cows. and even human people at birth Max say he only suggestion would be in next to pear tree's.

I hope we can have some sweet corn next year. I have had to buy three year for canning purpose.

we are finding it very expensive to git are son a little education the car expensive Mrs. [I?dora] Lardie died on expectedly Friday nite.

Sincerly Max. Hazel
