Transcription: Mrs. J. D. Yowing(?) North Reading, Mass Dear Mary, Will you please send me the directions for making that crochet pattern I started at your house. I can't seem to get it right and I want to do some of it; to trim a waist. It is good to see the sun again we have rain enough now to make up for the dry times. Hope you folks are all well we are at present: Much love to all Alice Whitworth(?)
