Dear Frau:

6:40 PM just arrived home. Have been in new direction to-day south and south east Maulins, Oran, etc. Made pictures of 3 schools and some private work. One school only represented 2 families and another had their picture made lately so can’t expect too much from my school work to-day.

Last night Nelson crouped nearly all night. They have no school the rest of this week and this morning he hung around first over the register, then in the store and then to the window. I told Chas. that he ought to be put to bed but of course you know how quickly he takes any suggestion of that sort. When I arrived this evening his grandmother Clark was here and Nelson is laid out in the Morris chair and being nursed. Had Dr.; Edwards. Says that he has bronchitis and his temperature is 103 and Mrs. Clark says she would rather have a scarlet fever case.

Have not looked up $1225 house. Intended to try and get around to see a house that is to rent for $10 per month to-night but did not get into town early enough. Uncle Ernest and Dudley stayed here all night and left at 8 AM

Write

Yours truly
