(seq. 58)

2nd
I hope I can make a change soon
I will try to get to the ocean this
summer, I know the steps hurt me I
get back ache. I was sorrry to hear of
Miss Kellys death, I appreciated Susan's
Easter card, weather permiting I
try to get to Library, and do a little
shopping, I get tired soon, mostly
in bed at six o clock, but Im up
before six in the morning
Miss Weinberg wrote me, I gave Mr Keefe
her letter to give you, If I were younger
I would go west some time I am
sorry I ever came back. I will close
with my love to you

Affectionately Yours
Bessie Thornton

P.S. drop me a line when you have
time, a letter from you does put me
up some, my sister in law
and my neice Grace, never been to see
me since I came back, I wrote them I
was back, have not heard a word
I suppose they had me dead + buried
