My Dear Children, 

Your letter has just come and it has cheered me up a lot. I feel as if I had some family left yet who cares about me. But my dears, I would'nt ask you for any help. I just could'nt. You have your own old age to look out for and little Dots' too. And beside I hav'nt played my last card yet. Now don't you worry about us or I shall be sorry I wrote you about our troubles The only excuse I have for it was because I do feel pretty forlorn at times with no relatives left in the world except you and Ralph and no one out here. And it is a relief some times to talk or write it all out. I'm not one of the "strong, silent" kind like Cal. Coolidge. I ought to be but I'm not. Then too it did seem awfully mean not to be sending
