Lottie is bound to make it so apparent, no doubt its very hard, but one would have more pity, if she would say less about them. I have got my jackets done, and now am waiting for her to send more yarn. They are not rushing business these days. I am going to get in a little sewing this week if possible as I never know when she will send yarn. Frank Capins family are all down to Florida went this week we have not heard a word from the Griffins since they went south. 

Lester Saulsburys wife is buying the lot side of them they are paying in every month till they pay for it. She gets six-dollars a week for a little boy whose father was gassed in the war, and is now in the Peter Bent hospital. Perry Dykeman wants the dump and the land down as far as McNaughts also, they dont want any more wood cut off down there, so it looks as if we should get rid of paying less taxes. I wish we could put up a bungalo between the old place and Trollops that might sell, some land there, Pa often speaks of it and says he is a good mind to do so. I do wish somebody more to our taste lived over in the old place its so disagreeable to go over there so much where you dont speak to him or have any thing to do with them I'd tell him to go if it rested with me mighty quick so long, Ma.
