Wednesday. Glen Carbon.

Tafren dearie, Am only 16 miles from St. Louis. Had good meeting last night - all miners and their families, 100 present. Speak again tonight in same place. Rec'd ms. at Jacksonville. Many thanks. Have not had time to look it over. Did you ever write me the result of your trip to Glen Ellyn? I have never rec'd the letter if you did. Hope you got the place in shape for the Coles' before time for them to go in. Did you get any rent money from the M's? Did they stay after Apl. 1st? Am beginning to count the days when I shall be home again. It seems an eternity since I left. And am so hungry to see you. Am in pleasant quarters, staying with miners. So glad you passed your typewriting exams so well. Send any mail to me to 230 N. Seminary St. Collinsville, before next Saturday. Oceans of love, Mother.
