Dear Parents
I have received but one letter from you since I saw you ~ ~ I expect to meet you at Sallys Christmas if health and weather permits ~ ~ I would like to have you write when I may book for you here ~ ~ the day after Christmas or New Eves Years Day ~ ~ we are all well as usual ~ ~ the babe can hold a teaspoon in her hands ~ ~ Sally is as full of mischief as ever ~ ~ we have heard that Jim has given up his job and John has got it but do not know the truth of the story ~ ~ write often
From,
Caroline F. Houpt
