got two boys & two girls & dont have a place to live with anyone Boy I guess is afraid she will come on him he is sarcastic no old Uncle Erika Sandfords [[Sandford's]] Father, it runs in the Capen Family. He has gall stones & is not well. But he took good care of Wallace & she shirked the care of him. Well my red bud is just blossoming out today it is pretty I have let Addie & her sister pick violets over in my yard & the Gilzer boy picked a good big bunch. There are lots of them coming up from seeds. They get so plenty they have to be dug up they are full of seeds. Thus has been a day with very little sun but warm. I wish it might rain during the night, mothers day it surely is all days seem alike to me no difference. I hope you are off riding & enjoying yourselves like every body around my neighborhood. I dont see Ralph or Maude they probably are down to Nantasket they seem like people who are prosperous. I wonder if they will be lucky to let their cottage this summer it is a nice little cottage but I would hate to stay there three months as I hate the water. It is lonesome to look at towards night. I wonder what Bruce will ever make. The older one has never ammounted [[amounted]] to much so far has he? Well I will carry down the letter before dark    Ma.
