June 7 / 37
Dear Cousins Mary + Berton
Was glad to get your letter and sorry not to answer before, but as usual I put off. I am all alone this summer as Norman is over on the north shore working on the road. But I have a boy staying with me now.
Am very sorry to tell you that Aunt Florence passed away last Wednesday. Sending an account. It was a great shock to all of us as she had been so well.
[Page 2]
You asked about Corydon Bull. Well he has never been found. He wandered off last fall. His wife + daughter have gone back home.
J.J. Bull is still going strong and his sister Florence just looks terrible but will keep her calves and complains of so much work to do.
Thanks for the snaps, as you say wish they were better.
I wish you people could make the trip again when you wouldn't have to hurry the way you did. Glad that you had such a nice trip home.
Got a letter from Norman saying he was fishing on the 23rd May and got 62 trout weighing from one to one and a half pounds. Some fish and they make good eating that size.
We have had some very hot days 94 in the shade, but tonight it is raining.
J.J. is very anxious to go to the Bull picnic this fall and wanted us to go but that is impossible

as Norman will be away until the last of November or freeze up time.
Remember us to the girls and hope they are well. We have survived a cold winter. Will try and write again and forgive us for not answering your letters.
Hoping to hear from you people sometime.
Lots of love to all
Fannie Bull
