Dear Doris

To day it is windy but still warm & comfortable. I have been down town & met Joe Capen in the firs National & he wanted me to tell Pa that he had not forgotten him & if it would do to come up to see him & so I had to tell him he'd better not as Pa had got where he did not enjoy seeing any one & he was easily excited he said he understood it & thats what he was thinking so did not come but told me to tell him that he certainly had not forgotten him. he is a good hearted man, every body speaks well of Joe Capen. his mother was a good woman & his father was own cousin to mother. rather too much of a Gill to be agreeable, but nothing very bad. you know I notified Ralph about the window in the old house being open. well he did not shut it yesterday, so Alice told me to get the key of Ralph & Percy would shut the window to night, after he got home from the factory & said you had better keep hold of the key as long as he does not seem to be interested. but I will do as Sidney thinks best. I thought Ralph felt stuffy over my coming to see him about it. he never said I, yes, or no. why he had not shut the window yesterday. he was at home most all day he said. it would not be a job to shut the window.
