Dear Miss Golden,-

 

I thought I would write you letter seen I didn’t write one in my Language class.  I am writing this on Sunday but I guess it won’t do any damage if I don’t do anything worse then to write a letter.  Be you going to stay all night with me?  I have a piece to speek a lone the last day it is to be spoke last.

 

This paper is some that my Uncle gave to me a year ago last winter.  Isan”t the picture on it cute?  I have a cute little kitten that is five or six weeks old it stays out to the barn with its mother but when it gets older I am going to fetch it into the house for we have none in the house now.

 

This is a very rainy day, but just now it is not raining and the sun is pretty near shining.  This is a very lonesome day.

 

Mary Ann Mours said she was coming to school the last day.  I ask Bertha my sister-in-law if she was coming up to school and she said she didn’t know.  She has a little baby named Earl which is very cute.  He will be two the thirteenth of August.  I am going to put nine questions into the question box this week.  I have them all wrote.

 

Well I guess this is all for this time when you get home answer this letter and I will answer yours.

 

Well this is a pretty long letter for me to write.  Excuse poor writing.

 

Your pupil,

 

Edna Smith,

Tallmadge,

Ottawa Co.,
