when the snow goes our regular man will come around after it. (Getchel), I have been downstairs after my mail & got a valentine from Miss Shieber, she always remembers me in holidays, a very generous, kind hearted woman. I hope by now you are much better with the house warmer & no more snow to go out in & Sidney to drive to his work Gertrude Ballantine is down with a grippy cold. Tom has given up his job there taking care that big estate. he got sick shoveling snow & is at home with his family I guess. they are none too happy over there living with their sister Miss Seriack they have fights dont all agree & its not all their sisters disposition.
