A more pleased boy. You never seen or heard tell of then I was. When I had received to read them sweet loving words it contained. More thanks that I can count. I send to you for that good good letter you sent me. Hoping that our true friendship & love may always freely flow. So Ellie, I did not think you a little simple thing. you writing to me. if I do owe you another letter, I was expecting one from you. I'm inclined to think the letter I didn't write to you did not have the night flap to its wings or lit most undoubtly. would have went all night. Oh law yes! got home all right side up with care. had something like 3 or 4 hours sleep. got up in the morning as much refreshed as if though I had a full night's sleep. It seems so long since I seen you. It makes me feel bad to think about it. hope it will be pleasant weather soon. if it don't I am coming over pretty soon if my health keeps good. How did you spend today. did you look each to see if was coming, I know by your letter that you would kinder like to see me a little. But not so much as I would you I think. do you. I'll try & not pound my fingers. Mr. Lee took his tools home last evening & Mr Brown quit last Thursday. went to plastering houses. I am the only one left. There are a few more days work to do there I'll go too. The people are telling me I have some rock hauled on a pile at a certain place. had you heard anything about it. strange to say. yet possible. to doubt you are enjoying your sleep while I'm talking to you. At this late hour. After 10 o'lcok. Kiss me good night. I'll go to bed. ever Truly Yours Albert Miller
