Dear Uncle Jule.

I was wanting to write to somebody being as this is Sunday and vacation too, Ede asked me if I did not want to write to you, I told her I did. I have not written a word all vacation and I cannot hardly form a letter, my hand trembles so that it makes my writing look so funny. I have not got anything to do on Sundays, there is no Sunday School or [[crossed-out]] curch [[/crossed-out]] church, and nothing to do but to a read book Miss Huntsman
