of Pittsburg, came to Maude's
last evening. Is going back
tomorrow morning. One of
our town boys is going to
see her now. He has been
working in Pitts., some
time. Maybe, you know him,
Carl Mead. Am so sorry
we disappointed you not
coming out. Oh, but I
would love to be out there
awhile, but I don't know
if it would be best for
me to go. The folks don't
want me to go. Think I
shall give up the office
before winter. Have had
an awful cough, have
it yet. Doctor says it
