1911? Friday [...]. Mar. 17th St Patricks Dearest mother; - I just remembered this is St. Patrick’s - The storm Wednesday was not local - we had it too - the cold still asts. The gale of 60 miles an hour ceased with last night’s sundown - Your coat which is very good looking - with underware etc- came yesterday, also Daddy’s apparel which quite pleases him. Grandmother says she hasn’t written you for she expected you home last Sat. night - your [...] alloted time, and has not [known?] since what your address was. She has been looking daily for your needles for her by express! There is a [...ss?]- supper at the church tonight which as Mrs. Beginty is here, is the most strenuous exercise for me for the day. We had a letter from you yesterday and [m…?] [...e?] this A. M. Grace writes that Isabelle is not any better - I was terribly sorry to hear it - Have just as good a time, just as long [crossed out: a time], as you possibly can! We are getting on famously and hope you will wait till Grace comes. With best love, M’g’t -
