detriment to the public service. How do you get along and feel? Do you enjoy yourself finely and take lots of fun and are you real fat and jolly? Bet if I could get hold of you I would make you laugh and kite around and exercise until you would beg for me to quit I like to see you enjoy yourself so well. It makes me happy to see you enjoying yourself. How do you like the idea of having a horse and full equipment? "Spect" you won't object much, would you? I presume that you have had real cold weather up in Iowa before this time. Have you put on flannel under clothes this winter? I have the nicest flannel underclothes you every saw and am just as fat as a pig and my skin is as smooth and bright as a babes. There is nothing like it for health. I am so happy to know that your health and that of the babes is so good. And you like your maister and his wife? I want you to go to your lender and pay up your quarterage for the year, now do it right off and then it is done with and they will need it to fix up & provide comforts for the mister. Give my love to the church and all who enquire after my welfare. Kiss the dear little pets for me and tell them to hug you a week for papa. I am your own true & faithful husband Weaver. 30 kisses for Clara dear
