Josaphene  who lives in Ohio. her sister in Rutherford New Jersey she wrote & told her sister here she was not going to make any presents this year not even cards. that's where Mamie Kate is. she thinks more of her than any body else nobody in Stoughton does. the day is growing dark & only a little after 4 O'clock. I wouldn't be surprised if we woke up and found a snowstorm in the morning.

I have begun to do up my Xmas presents today. shall send them off early this year not many of them & hope you are not doing much this year.

Mabel Boloord did very well at the show Friday night & her Father & Mother & Aunt were there to see her. she was Confirmed last Sunday at the Church. all dressed in white silk her hair curled & she looked very stylish Mrs. Barry said. a spoilt child & at the silly age. I think Lena is tutoring from what Addie said her shop dont support her. she also does some dressmaking but is one who never tells her own business. Mrs. Barry met lots of Stoughton people in Brockton among them was the Maude Bloke with Bertha Upham. she told her she was living with Bertha she looked perfectly happy & well was very glad to see Mrs. Barry. I have an invitation to go to the Congregconal church to a time with Laura and Mrs Barry but am not going. Ma 
would rather go to bed. my eyes are bad at night they get tired.
