another hot day but pleasant Stoughton July 10th 1935 Dear Doris This is a very uncomfortable feeling day. so I will try to write a letter as it is too hot to sew or make tatting. my chambers are cooler than down stairs here. she is just through her work & is taking a bath. the tub is no use to me as it requires two good legs to get out of it without breaking ones ribs. I tried three times & now have sworn off as I feel that to die naturally is to be preferred, at my time of life, you see I am "Old fashioned" & not fit to be alive with the present generation. Addie was saying one day that Mrs Toomey was looking very bad, pale & sick and the family would be very much better with out her, as she kept them worried & in a state of anxiety most of the time. so that is the way they look at it now a days. she may be old and fussy some day, then she will realize. Myra Ulpham was getting ready to come to Alices to board while Dorothy & her husband where packed up ready to go on their vacation, when she had a paralytic shock and is not expected to live. she has nothing to live for and will be much better to go in that way, if she only can & not have to linger for someone to take care of her.
