Dear Doris 
We are having a very cool day with lots of cool air a stirring since Friday the wind got into the NW & today a sweater is the proper thing to keep comfortable. I have been reading a good book as I am here alone it helps to pass away the time. every body in the neighborhood have gone as usual & it is lonesome, if I allow myself to think I have just written a letter to Lena. she sometimes goes with Bernice on a vacation but they are not very congenial, they fret each other. If she had married in her early life as she should, she might have been happier, now she is living an unnatural life. she has no home nor hometics nothing to look forward to. I suppose you are having a good time riding off 60 or 70 miles & coming home tired out. well I hope the weather is as cool there as here but afraid not.

Mrs Osbornes Flossie is bloating badly some days she is unable to be on her feet its her heart. she is in no condition to be left alone I should think. she worries about her a good deal
