Gann? Valley Nov. 6th 1890 Dear Aunts & Uncle,

  We received Aunt Marys last letter last Monday. Well. Election has passed and I was not elected County Superintendent. So I wrote you before I did not expect to be elected. About two months ago their was a Miss Barber appointed to the office- (the old superintendant having resigned) and she and her parents were old residents of the county and she naturally expected to receive the nomination on the republican ticket, but I was almost unanimously nominated. Libbie's brother Will was a candidate in the same convention for County Treas. but lost the nomination on the ground

sideways at top: I imagine that it is about 50 miles. Two weeks of school will have passed tomorrow night and then there will be 2 1/2 months left. I suppose we could arrange to come in six weeks if we thought best what work has to be done on the farm in the winter and what help does Uncle hire in the winter. I can tell pretty well after you answere these questions which will be the most profitable. Love to you all from your nephew R.H. Everett
