Allegheny Pa,

Dear friend Rose:

Yours received. Last night we had a little snow and to-day it has been fearfully cold, so that I have stayed in my room nearly all day.

About the only day that I feel lonesome is Sunday and that is because Mr. Forrester and I were nearly always together when we were here Sundays. But to-day I have kept pretty well occupied reading. But I have not read any in that book to-day. Will send McFadden’s magazines in a few days.

Your wants for Xmas are very small and will be easily supplied. Young man is called Nelson but I would prefer to call him Howard. Miller did not say very much about him, but I presume it is because I did keep him on that subject. Mr. Forrester is doing very nicely on his present run. He thinks his trip out to St. Louis gave him good experience so he can do better than before. And his trip to St. Louis was not so very bad as he had the trip and went home as well off as he left.

Yesterday evening I called on Mr. Tohnan. He has rather a bad cough a nd rather fear that he has caught the tub[erculosis] himself.

The “Still Man” is Mr. Tohnan’s cousin. I think I have told you about him. Always talking “Still”.. If not will tell you when we meet again.

Thanksgiving afternoon I went to see Anna Eva Fay. She performs some wonderful things such as having spirit hands assist her in playing on musical instruments etc. She also answers written questions and in that line she is way ahead of anyone else that I have ever seen. She is covered by a sheet on the stage and you hold your question in hand and she will tell you how your question is worded and how you have signed your name and then answer the same.

I deliver to-morrow in Homestead Braddock and McKeesport. And after delivering I am going to try to get in some record breaking days on orders. Thanksgiving day rather broke this week up on act on coming in middle of week.

Yours truly,

Max

Gen Del Allegheny, Pa.
