was so late when we washed last week there is no need of hurrying I mean to try to coax Mary to go and look for flowers so we can send you a sample. The pieplants seem growing for a wager! and the strawberries are coming on well. The finest are bringing out their spring dresses and soon they will be gay with their red bud blossoms and white plum, of which there are many- then the varied shade of green will add the lovely finishing off. It is rather muddy after the rain so we will probably be glad to confine ourselves to walking on the grass. I killed a rooster yesterday before anybody else was up. I could not break his neck so I held his head between my knees while I tied his feet and I think I smothered him. We skinned him and intend to try to stuff him? Jane Hughes' letter giving direction got mislaid,

in top margin I think Mary has a letter written for you cause she always does write to you first so I’ll keep this to post in her envelop.
