ARTHUR L. HOLMES 290 WALNUT STREET STOUGHTON,MASS. June 28th 1932 Dear Doris There was no postman this forenoon & so your letter remained waiting & to have it go through to day I went to the office after one O'clock & put it in & they gave me your letter & [[Brelyn/Evelyn?]] said the mails were delayed. so coming home I stopped in to Lotties & Mrs Churchill was on her piazza & stopped a minute & spoke with her. Pa hardly knew I was gone. he has got it in his head that I dont know about their charging on their letters & that there is a three cent stamp. you cant get his mind changed on any thing if you go to the devil. so the best way is to say nothing & let him forget it. The wind got out into the North West & it is much cooler than yesterday. everything looks lovely I wet down nights & mornings & my tomatoes are doing fine they are buddied [[top margin]] PS Berries are getting ripe over in the field I got enoug [[enough]] for a saucer pie to night. Ma Wish you could get more sleep too bad Pa is just the same & no more sleep for me after 5 in the morning Ma [[/top margin]]
