I had a letter from Lena saying that she thought of coming out thanksgiving & bringing a cooked chicken if we approved & that it would not upset Pa by her coming out. I told her not to think of any such scheme as we cared nothing for the day & would treat it as just an ordinary day. she wrote us a very nice letter & Pa carries it around with him & wants me to preserve Lena is good & very unselfish. Pa is saving all the time he is awake. crazy as a coot. Dont send any money we have a plenty. Ma
