Dear Jennie I wish you were here to see some of our large hills and big hollows we have a very different looking place from the place where you are living I suppose. I never was out in the West any, butt if it is the will of Providence I think I will go out sometime, I see my cousin Bella once a week at writing school which is held at our school house. she is an excellent young lady, she and I has been school mates all our lives and we are very much attached to other, if we cannot get to see other as often as we would like to, we will write a letter and send it some way, sometimes if we get a chance we will write a note. to see if the other is going any place, if the one will go then the other will too if it is convenient. Almost all of our neighbors is going to leave this coming Spring. the most of them is just tenants though
