Atlanta Kansas Dear Nephew, just read your letter annoucing the death of your mother, such news comes in the course of events, some thing a letter or newspaper paragraph will carry to you such news of the writer of this as I past sixty seven years of age, my time limit is nearly out, Sorry am I to bear of the passing of such a good noble woman as your mother, she deserves the rewar of knowing that her children were a credit to her noble example of living.
