Dear folks:

[Deadel?] I had
better write a halfway
decent letter to you
or you would
beat me.

It is 15 min. after
nine & we Matey, Mable,
& I just got back from
the lake. Such a wild
time as we did have.
We met Lenora & Dorthy
downtown, [sothey?].
Came home with
us.

I wrote a letter to you
at noon but have
misplaced it. If I find
it, will send it.
