can have Miss Blanke take care of it.  Don't have it for any longer period than the present insurance.  Then if we had a fire, we are protected.  And you can't get in-surance after the fire is started.  White it is a little more expensive yet I believe it is worth it.  Enclose is Tidings which you can keep with this letter.  We have been threatened with rain for the last two or three hours, with a slight sprinkle but nothing matured.  I guess I'll put in a for a dis-charge at the end of the year.  By that time, I'll have served my time.  Whether I run for County Attorney or not depends on how things are at that time.  Don is very much impressed with his job as a mail clerk.  He is very jealous of his work and doesn't like for anyone else to touch it.  He is very slow with it though.  I gave him the dickens on time and he was rather huffy about that.  But he'll get over it.  I see by the paper where the Methodist Conference bought the Free Methodist campground there at Birmingham for use as a conference place.
