Henrietta Fletcher to Katherine Fletcher Sunday nightDear Katie
I have got your waist and expect Mr Pearl down to morrow and will send it by him if I can, if not will send it some other
way. mamie told Carrie she would let you know by tuesday if she went up or not.
I do not think she will, we will borrow the money for Mrs T_ if we can. Ida will
not come back for one week, so this will give you four weeks teaching at five
doll per week How much does she (Mrs Tracy) charge for it is only 19 weeks
tuesday since you commenced
if it was the 9th of Feb when school began
and you know how much you have been home almost one week decoration
