Old Mission, Mich Sept. 20th 1920 My Dear Miss Taft:- I received your card & am very happy you got home safe & sound. Even though you were tired & dirty a good bath & rest will mend your trouble. We had a lovely shower the 15th & have had no frost yet although the weather is cool. Billy was laid to rest the 17th Mr. Lannin [S]shot him & he suffered no pain. I am glad it is over with. Joseph had not the heart to do it. Your laundry is here & I will try to care for it. Hazel has tried several times to unwrap it. She says Miss Taft went to towna. What did you order the extra lumber for. Well it is past my bed time so must retire. Yours, Essie K.
