Dear John Eddie

  We did not get your card  until Sat.  Indeed we only got our mail  twice last week, (Tues. and Sat.) as George  went away Monday and William was so  poorly.  Mrs R.R. Roberts was buried  last Tuesday, and Anna went down afoot  to the funeral.  The roads were so soft  they could not take the horses any  farther than Frank Evans.  Men & boys  had to draw the sleighs from there to  Fairchild.  William is getting better  slowly but he does not get over this  spell very fast.  He finds it pretty  tough work to do the chores.  You  ask if we would like to have you come home before the term closes.
