Dear Ruth:

Your letter received and I have been thinking everyday I would write you a letter but some how I just have not got it done.

This is a beautiful day, but yesterday was terrible, high winds with showers every once in a while. We had our first snow a week ago Saturday night but it melted as fast as it fell. November so far has been an ugly month, rains two or three times a week. I have not heard from Bill for some time. I hope he is all right.

[Edited for content] Anna is not getting along very fast with her tooth filling. She can only stand to have two pulled every two weeks.

Well it will soon be Thanksgiving and I hope all of you will have a happy Thanksgiving together. I still have the Bronchitis and something the matter with my eyes but otherwise I guess we are as well as usual. Love to all,

Aunt Annie
