This letter was mailed to Alice Cordelia Parker Foster (widow of Jack Foster) in Cass County, Tx. It is from her sister-in-law Delia Cook Foster (wife of W.R. Dick Foster from Eastman, Ga.) Attached is a picture of these three people about four years before the letter was written. The picture is taken in Cass Co. in 1929.

The spelling is as it is in the letter....as it the punctuation.
