I had almost forgotten to tell you I have such a very pretty new dress, not quite made yet. I just know I will get a beau, the fourth of July, as I'm most determined to wear it. am going to get a hat this week also if I can find any thing in Wenona or Lostant pretty enough for me to wear, know I'll look awful handsome if my face should happen not to get well. Guess I will get a letter from somebody this week, wouldn't you like to see it. I&'m getting anxious myself. The cherries are turning red, will have pies of them this week, Grandmother says, the strawberries are all gone, were not very many in the first place. Grandmother left six ducks, four geese and one chicken in a basket for us to feed while she was gone. I must give them something pretty soon, or I'm most afraid
