fam on my third rug. I cut out the center of that lounge cover that was worn so badly & made me a nice cover for my lounge after sewing it together & we think it is great improvement to our old one, so it did some good you see. I called up Lottie Brane & she said that she never thought Sidney was a talker as a little boy she said Ralph & Ned were little boys when she first came here to live. I said that Arthur's mother was a talker, she thought aloud always & Doris might have got it form her, but you never talked you don't have the gift of gob now, your bump of talking as a child was very small so the phrenologist told me. She said that Elisha died of gangrene. he hurt his leg and Joe Bapen told him to go to the hospital to be treated, but neglected to do so, but perhaps it was just as well he died, he had given off his milk route three days before he was taken. I guess there are no mistakes made it would be a blessing to take Emily she don't enjoy life these all living alone. Mrs Barry was pleased to hear Doris liked the little pig on her tea & enjoyed her fish paper drawings, If you have to buy anything you have to pay a good price but if you have anything to sell you are lucky to get anything for it. I got nothing for the old heather. Mr. Harrington said old iron was way down & guess I was lucky to get it carried off as it was but I think they should have paid me something a man might have done better & got something out of them. Every one here has a cold I use vicks & find its good to prevent it if taken in time hope your folks are feeling much better than they were hope Lena gets something to do she is looking good. Ma
