Postmark June 6, 1899

Tuesday am

My Dear Nelly,

I truly hope before this reaches you I will have seen you & then I’l know what day you leave.

I guess I can never write & get a reply to my letter because it takes a week & I’ve always seen you & got the answer.

I guess Mr. Brinson will come Thursday.

He wrote he would.

Sold Nelly yesterday. I did hate it too but guess Bro will get a better one or at least he’ll try.

I wish Bullet was ok then I’d know you could come when you wanted too to see me.
There is a young man & his mother in the Old Globe for a few weeks. Came from Hawthorn.

Came to go in Spring.

Nellie if you have to go to Ga do go & come back & get the trip off my mind as I have always rather looked forward to it with dread. Then too I know you have to go.
Bro is gone this week to. I can’t see you before you leave don’t know what day he’ll come home.

But remember to write to me on first mail if it’s early & ok arrival notice.

Mrs. E two daughters will be here this week (today).

Ha Ha I sold my white vest yesterday now how about it!! Well it was to large for me any way.

Do write to me often because you are all now.

Lovingly
Glass
