Cousin Samuel

    

     Your letter recd  We were very glad to hear from you once more was

sorry to hear that your wife was in poor health  We are all well but are

getting older every day   Mary E is with us  She is talking of going to

Kansas this fall on a visit   Oliver is still at home with us  It has

been very wet here for some time   the oats are all in shock but cant

get them dry enough to put in the barn  will have to thresh them out of

the shock  they are growing some and I don’t think will be very good   In

regard to the state fair I would like to go but hardly think I can go this

fall but if I can arrange to go will let you know and where to meet me

at before you leave home   Kate Hagens oldest daughter is in very poor

health  don’t think she will live a great while   the rest of the friends are

all well

                                                Yours truly

                                                E L Carrick
