Dear Sister and Nephew,
It is hard to
know what to write about John Eddie's
getting a school to teach this next summer.
He had better speak to Robbie when he
sees him as they (he & his mother), are coming home
through New York. Robbie knows more about
schools and wages than we do. John D.
told me that George has had a
letter from you. I asked him whether he
thought would get schools for you, and
he said he did not know. George
could not tell - he did not know
how many would be wanting schools,
nor how many of the schools had been
taken. John D. said he supprised that
George would feel that he ought first
to supply those with schools who had
passed the (his) examination which he had
in margin: Jennie wants you not to worry about her. she is better than when she wrote before. She has that numbness in her hand yet, but not as bad. She thinks the medicine she needs is what she got first of Dr. Lil. she does not want you to trouble about it. now as you are feeling so poorly and she is better. Cousin Mary said she thought Jennie seemed better than at any time since Mother's death. Caroline says she thinks J. is gaining every day - don't you thinks she is in danger of getting vain with so many compliments?
