May 11th 85Dear Sister

Page 1

Yours of the 7th just came to hand yesterday and mother desires me to say that the one you wrote last Tuesday has not as yet come to hand and consequently do not know the contents or hardly what you desire. The letter may turn up soon and perhaps it may not reach her at all better write again.

We are all usualy well tho mother is not any better of her weekness. Very cold, and backward spring with us nothing done on the farm

as yet of any consequence but we all wish for a clear up before long

We have not heard from Ed in some time then they were all well

Love to all

Your aff BroGeo B Smith
