her a very good supper. her folks are famos [[famous]] for appearing aroun [[around]] just at supper time but suppose thats the way it happens.

My roses are all in bloom. they look very showey. this rain has done them much good, the ground was in need of this extra moisture now perhaps we shall get more. the tomatoes are looking bright I wish he had added some fertilizer to the soil they needed it, I told him to but there is always something wrong.

We are going to have a baked haddock for our dinner. wish you could be here to have some with us, as you are very fond of it.

None of those grape vines are living you tried to transplant & Mr Turner said, all but one of the trees are going right ahead. that little porter apple tree doesnt show much signs of life. guess our dry weather hasn't done it any good. it had a few blossoms on it this spring but the bawlding tree is everlastingly flourishing since it was trimmed up. the girls over to the old place keep everything looking right up. they take much pride in their house. but the Bruces let their lawn grow up to tall grass. I like Mrs Bruce she is a good woman & a worker.

well I will now eat my dinner love Ma.
