Dear Ma

Don’t know what is the
matter with the mail service down
this way. You say you was looking
for my letter and I was looking for
this letter I got to day since Friday.

Very sorry to hear the way Elmo
is acting because he promised me
faithful he would do what was
right. And that promise meant a
lot to me, because if he doesn’t do
right by you he is hurting me just
as much. As I will all ways
hold him to that promise and never
recognize him as a brother if he
don’t for full it.
