Dear Albert,
I have a few leisure minutes this afternoon so I thought I would still keep you in [dept[. is it not a little funny that you who are so very very [illegible[ in all your dealings with man, that you would be content to be in [illegible] [illegible] a girl. You know getting in [dept] is not as hard, as the letting the account Well I have not reckoned any interested yet---
[Illegible[ will please excuse my writing with a lead pencil this time. The boys went to an assembly meeting, taking the ink with them. But I made my mind to write and so I will if I would have to take a pin [illegible] Scratch with my pencil dont do much more any how---
but you see my will is good.
Well Albert there is no rest for the weary over here. What sacred [illegible] in [illegible] of [illegible] the graveyard. What question has been talked I [illegible[ at so much. What you would think [me?] [curse?] intendinng to everything to make a [illegible[?
