My dear girlie:

It isn't often I find an unanswered letter from you on the pile of other letters nine days after you have written it. I am still teaching and have promised to stick by them until they can find a "regular teacher." I don't know how soon that will be. As you may suppose I get very tired, and I have a lot of home work to do, correcting papers and working out my program for the next day. Friday morning just before school was called, Mrs.

nearly all of our navel oranges yet, but it will hardly pay to ship them at al dollar a box. The Kings I mean to sell to the commission men here. Have had an offer of $1. box but it isn't enough. How fine to have a telephone again. I couldn't do without ours.
