Oswatomie, May 7, 1883. My dear Son annotation [John Eddie] /annotation
I received yours from Cambria (May 11th) at night as I came back from Paola, but could not send it till I got home. I had written a card at Paola to Barneveld. I have written three cards - one to Dodgeville, and two to Barneveld. I hope this will not be too late to reach you at Oshkosh. I am afraid you did not get either of the cards. We had a heavy rain last Saturday night & Sunday morning, and another last night, and it is still raining. At Kansas City Sunday afternoon, they had a tornado. It blew down and unroofed a good many houses and several lives were lost. The creek has been above fording, and I presume the present rain will send it up again. It will be several days before we can go into the fields with plows.
