Dear Sister Anna
This has been a very sad day here. Mrs. Schells funeral was this afternoon, at one o'clock. It is now a little after four and they have all got back. Nate is lying down and Eddie has gone to the store so I have commenced to write a few lines as I know you will be anxious to hear. There has been a good deal of mass and sad confession here today as you may think. They did not get here with the corpse until this morning about half past
