I have not been to school since she began
teaching, but am going Monday. The weather
has been so rough and the walking mudy [sic] beside.
I helped Grace, for Grandma fell and sprained
her ankle two weeks ago. and she cannot step
on it. The river is free from ice on our shore
but Volty and Wallace Niles walked across
down by Mr Horns, day before yesterday on
form ice but the ice is gone now. My health
is good. I never was so fat as now. How
is your health and what made you sick
when you last wrote and are you teaching and
how are Benny & Willie dear little brothers and
Ma. Give my love to them all and Dear
Grandma and grandma Craig and family.

From your loving daughter
Maude L. Watson
