Dear Nick,

            We received your letter and sure were glad to hear from you.

            Don’t be cross because we didn’t answer sooner. Because we don’t have anybody to write.

            We made the garden. Pop has half of the porch built. We have the lumber to make it.

            The miners were on strike. But they will go back on Monday.

            We didn’t have no letter from George. We didn’t hear from him for a month.

            We didn’t have no letter from him since he was home last.

            Write to the boy and tell them everything if ok.

            Write when you will come home I guess this will be all for this time and soon,

                                                                                                Mom, Pop.
