Dear Folks

We had a lovely rain + it did lots of good.  my plants got a good wetting down in the right time.  it is a lovely cool day ideal.  Blanch Barry went to church today + the minister brought her home.  the one she used to know.  he used to preach in Holbrook + Mrs Perbeck was with him.  she knew Mrs. Barry + said I was a very nice lady + lived here within a stones throw of me.  Now I am here alone friends from Holbrook have come for her to go over there for a little ride to see her things they are keeping for her so in case she wants them ever + if anything happens to her, she has put in writing to give them to these people who have been true friends + offered her a home a thing her own sisters never have done.  she is going to bring over lots of food stuff here + a screen that fits into her window.  that bed in her room was not half put up.  it fell down once so yesterday when Sofer came to take off my storm windows, he pounded it down in place + now it is alright.  she feels safe to turn over in bed. Alice is very poorly.  she called me up Saturday + seemed to have a terrible cold, so she could not talk.  she was coughing so hard
