<p>Dear Sister,<br /> I have intended writing you<br /> for some time in regard to the <br /> old home. But have had a<br /> slight cold and felt rather<br /> (?)less. Then as you know I<br /> have so much writing to do that<br /> some of it is pushed back for lack<br /> of time. I do not re-member just<br /> what I wrote you – But the Burlington<br /> (C-B-rd-) crossed with Nebr at Platto<br /> (?) in July 1869. And then then pushed<br /> on to Ashland and Lincoln. We were<br /> living in the house. Then I can re<br /> member that a number of the men<br /> used to come to our house for food<br /> we cooked and ate in the basement<br /> ---------------------------</p>
<p>and slept I think on first floor you<br /> may re-member that the rooms were<br /> furnished by peace-meal and the room<br /> intended for our parlor not finished<br /> until J-M took the place over. The <br /> Congregational church was organized in<br /> Ashland in may 1871 So that<br /> I presume Rev (?) Knowles only preached<br /> from the time we moved in until then<br /> Rev Ara Farnell (?) you will remember was<br /> the first pastor at Ashland for the Con-<br /> gregational church. The (?) (?) that<br /> did not pass our place. But the freight-<br /> ers going from Nebr City and Plattsmouth<br /> to Denver and other points west. I will<br /> keep on making inquiry in regards<br /> copy of mothers picture. If you want to <br /> write G.G. I think a letter to Siux Falls<br /> would be forwarded. Keep well-<br /> Dearest love<br /> Theodore and Anna</p>

<p>Dear sister Lottie<br /> a little note to remind you that<br /> I have not forgotten your birthday<br /> I am so glad to see you looking<br /> well and we wish you many happy<br /> birthdays to follow. We were glad<br /> to have had the little visit with<br /> you and your family. So glad to<br /> have seen Harry again and also<br /> to meet his wife. She seemed very<br /> pleasant and interesting. Gill(?) and <br /> Verma(?) are such worth while young<br /> people. We hope that the elements<br /> will not dry them out this coming<br /> year but give them Nebraska in <br /> general an abundant crop.<br /> we too feel very much warmed over<br /> -------------------------</p>
<p>the condition of Josephine's little girl<br /> and hope that the will be marked im-<br /> provement when we hear again.<br /> Lottie I talked with our (?)est Supervisor<br /> in our schools about having copies<br /> of mothers picture made – She knows the<br /> picture well. Thinks there is noone<br /> here now who could do it. There was<br /> but she has gone. She told megapho-<br /> tographes who might be able to do it<br /> I will see him soon – and let you know<br /> what he has today. A few years ago<br /> before the old home burned Ray Reas(?)<br /> took a Kodac picture of it I asked him<br /> when we were there in June to get it<br /> for me. He kept neglecting it and only<br /> got it two or three days before it (?)</p>
<p>which I think was in September. I thought<br /> it was Pioneer History, Built before<br /> the Burlington R R came into Nebr.<br /> The Stage coach stopped there to lease and<br /> ----------------</p>
<p>take mail on their route. Freighters<br /> from Nebr City and Plattsmouth on<br /> the trail to Denver passed by long<br /> (?) (?) Mr Knowles held<br /> services there every other week on Sun<br /> afternoon and as I have said to our<br /> children – it was "Community<br /> Centre" without being named such<br /> Rays Kodac was very small but you<br /> can have the picture made larger<br /> if you wish. Lulu(?) had one made for<br /> one 7x5 inches. It is a very good picture<br /> if you would like to have a picture of<br /> the old house I will send you the <br /> film. I am enclosing the one Ray had<br /> finished. Theo thinks mine is 8x5 inches<br /> I went into the house but not upstairs<br /> Some changes which were an improve<br /> ment. You were in California then<br /> ------------------</p>
<p>your visits have been so short that<br /> we did not have time to think of<br /> nor talk of our doingo(?) . You must<br /> come when you can stay long<br /> enough that we will get caught up<br /> on our visiting. I am enclosing<br /> the picture of the old home that Ray<br /> had finished. The larger one that Lulu(?)</p>
<p>Had made for me shows up better.<br /> We hope that you have a comfortable<br /> winter and keep well.</p>
<p>With love to you and yours-<br /> Theodore and Anna</p>
<p>Should I address letters to Verna(?) to<br /> Aurora or Hampton?</p>
