return. Is your hair turning white I look for you to be very gray when I see you next spring.
Oh yes I forgot to tell you that Narmie Frankish gained 30 lbs in her vacation. Hattie and mrs. Dougherty (Dr. Heler's mother) came up from Vaperaiso and stayed two nights. They came to see the G.A.R. parade. You see we have as much company as ever. Mr. Drane was called east last week and has not returned yet. Mr. Drawers read a sermon this morning. Mrs. Hawley was called to Scribner to see her brother Mr. Nason, he is not expected to live a day.
Baby forms sentences now for herself. She says - "Mama Baby hunry." (hungry) "Help Baby to toto." (Help Baby to potato.) I could say lots to you if I could see you but I do not know how to say it in a letter so will close. Hope you get all my letters.
We had beef loaf, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, cold slaw, bread & butter, pie and grapes for dinner. & jellow too.
Good Bye
Marcia
