Envelope: Return to 61 Gustavus O S. W. Partridge Warren R.F.D. 2 Ohio My dear Seneca, No letter from you to night but think there will be one tomorrow. Wonder if you were in Hiram or Troy over Sunday. I wonder how you ever got there. What miserable storms we have had. The roads are terrible, about five in. of snow fell they think. Yesterday the boys went to church about 30 there. Frank Winters came home with them and to dinner. Bernice went away with Hine Frieve. Mister Lyon had a little party for his class. A nice time, I guess. Elmer says he went up to Johnie Hays after Elsie, but according to reports it was the preacher's daughter. He don't say. He looked pretty fine if he is our boy. Well, we had a letter from Aunt Mim to day at Aunt Esther. She left here at twelve o-clock Wed night and at two Thurs was at Aunt E's. Only twelve hours in the car. The longest wait was at Ash–one hour and five minutes, only twenty-five min- utes at Jackson. I cannot realize she is so far away. O yes we are all invited out Christmas for dinner at Benton Whistons, you can Berlie if he comes, too. No particular news just now. Only getting ready for Literary Fri eve, and the Christmas tree next week. That is flurishing well. Going to kill the beef this week so will have something for you to eat, ain't you glad. We have had some nice beef from Alex's and Fred's. The boys are all sleepy and I guess I am too. Truman has had a terrible cold. Stayed in two days last week. Is some better now. A good many out of school last week. Sick. Will say good night for now. Tues morn. Was going to write some but the wagon is coming. Will see you and lots of love from your mother. Anna Partridge Be careful about getting cold.
