Laura Davis letters from friends and family, 1943

1943-03-07 Freda Caldwell to Laura Frances Davis Page 4

he can follow Tom around & help some. And everything will be new & thrilling to him. Even Rasmus is gone too now. Don't see how Dad & Tom can get everything done. Of course it is too much for Tom. However, I must admit that he looked better last November than I'd ever seen him look.
We've been having cold weather here the past week - has been freezing nearly all day today. Fear it has gotten the peaches, but perhaps they were not far along enough to be hurt much. Hope not - with all this rationing. Don't know how people manage who have to buy everything. We still have several hundred jars of home-canned things in cellar, including fruit, vegetables, meat, jelly & pickles. 
Must close. Do write Frances when you can & let us hear how you are getting along. And best of luck & good wishes to you & Lloyd. 
Love - 
Freda CALDWELL
