I would certainly try to keep on good terms
with Alameda friends, for you may [underlined]
not make a Commission possibly
& then you would [underlined] be sorry.

Tell me how the sweater fits, please
dear = because I want to make
one for Les. & if this is inclined
to be too large or [underlined] too small anywhere
please tell me.

Fondest love from each one of us
worlds & hearts full of love.

We long for a sight of you dearie.

Ever your loving Mother
