It seems that Hattie Packard (uncle Nathan Tuckers daughter) has lived with them all winter.  I saw her there this morning when I returned the book & Mystie told who she was.  she lost all her money & the city gives her the pension thats supporting her. two sons & the youngest one used up her money.  I asked Mystie why she did not apply for one & she said they did not give them up in Vermont & had'nt even got a poor house.  she says she can make her own living. give her a chance.  I saw old Fred Stickney on the St. this morning he looked like an old tramp & you would know at one glance that he'd lost his mind he will get run over.  little Freddie has got a terrible cold so Kate said. Lottie screams & is a great care.  I guess they are up against it all around.  the world is full of such cases.  well too bad we are not in it beside of them Ma
