To Miss Taft I guess winter has came. it is snowing hard to-day. Bur we sure had some nice weather this fall.

We have the kitchen painted the walls. We didnt get the woodwork done yet. The walls sure make the Kitchen brighter. We painted walls a ivory.

There going to start stakeing out on electricity most any day. Your five dollar went in.

Max has hay home & everything in for winter. the straw came the other day.

Mrs Tom Richards is very ill she just lost another baby.

Most all men around country have gone deer hunting. wished more could go one year. The apples are not keeping this year there starting to rot already.

Max just killed an other muskrat in cellar. We are trying to decide wether to cook it. Mr Phelps say is very good. I am not much on wild stuff.

There isn't much news floating around. Sincerely, Max & Hazel. Over

Mr Reay never came to putty the windows it was getting so late. We ask Mr. Lewis Franklin Sr: to come so he did last week & puttyed them up it took 3 can of putty. and also put in some window board in that were rotted out. the labor was $1.75. his address is just Old Mission, as thay get there mail at post office there.

Max is boarding in back porch. So we wont need to step out into a snowbank when we open the kitchen door, or carry half snow bank into house. and a place to put in supply of wood & coal for nite use.

I guess that all I forgot to tell you.
