Doris, Pa has started his letter early in the game and has now passed it on for me to finish. We got your letter last night and were glad to hear you had found a place at last and in a good location and hope the people will prove nice to live with. We are having a lot of dog day weather its starting in early, but the gardens are looking fine every thing coming in a week er will have cucumbers, and summer squash, we have already had three messes of string beans and two of beets. I am going to send down a nail file that Lena got in Boston for you I have paid for it unbeknown to her, so it will go as her present, so you see I found yours in the ash pan the other day it must have got in with the rubbish this one is just like it with a handle so dont you buy one. Sue was over to Abbies Friday. She is going down to the shore through August, to do the work for Mabel Joneses family. Alice came home this week, her mother said she was awful brown. Miriam Huzzy's wedding comes off the 23rd in the methodist church a much talked of time, she will get a lot of presents I think, for the invitations are sent broadcast throug the town. He didn't get your Sunday letter 'till Thursday I was worried fo fear you must be sick but Lena said that Sit was carting it around in his pocket probably, which probably was the case as the envelope was dated the 16th.
Yours
Ma.
Hop you are feeling well through this weather is your apetite and better now?
