have got good crop; but
both years have been very
poor bringing about 1/4 th
of a crop and that hve
not covered expences and
we did not have anything
to start with so we are
in debt for all our
horses and machinery
besides the farm now
I know you are one of
the Richest ladies in
the World as well as
kind and I thought
to ask you if you would
be so kind and help us
some towards paying up
some of our due bills
which amount to
about 2,000 dollars
If we get some help may
be it will turn out

better next year, but unless
we get some help we
can not farm any more
and I dont know where
we would go as my
husband is not strong
enough to go day laboring
and we are six in the
family so it takes a good
deal home saving we
are; we got four little
girls Ruth 8 years
Violet 7, Amy 5
Anna 3 years old
we lost our little baby
1 1/2 years old she died the 19th
of sep. last; I am sure
if you saw my sweet
little girls you could
not help but making
both them and us
happy - well I will
