Dear Folks:

I guess you think that I have gone on a strikemfor sure. I certainly have been busy,though I have not been any where near full. I am mailing you a [[strikethrough]] $1.50 [[/strikethrough]] $150 check because the old boy got after me again this morning for his last 50 dollars. We have not yet made out any agreement as to his taking back the dishes. Since I have paid for them more than the amount I owe him, I don't see why he need to hurrybme on the rest of the money. At any rate, he has gone away for the day,and I am taking the chance to check out the money from the bank to apply on the Stoughton Co-op loan. I was hoping to have it all by the 11,if he would hold off. Perhaps I shall be able to send some of it any way. I am sending Gordan down with cash enough to bank so that I can pay Batchelder & Snyder this morning too. If I get enough in to pay Mr. D. after that,well & good. I wish that I were independent of him;but as it is,he takes me down town for shopping every day or so and that helps me tremendously. Alice got bossy and to using the big stick on me; she thought I couldn't get along without her;so threatened me with leaving. I took her up and sent her off with thanks last Thursday,-a week ago to-day. Friday Gordan telephoned down home and got one of my pupils to come up. Now thing s are different. 

Gordan says this won't go off this morning unless I stop writing. I want to tell you how surprised and pleased I am about Doris's baby,but I will do that later on to-day I hope.

Hastily
Lena
