Dear Sis,-

This is a heck of a pen, so pardon writing. Am nearly sick with hay fever. Just as cross & crabid as ever. Going to take the folks down to the Chamber of Commerce this aft. & up Angels' Flight. Am glad you are having such a dandy time. Lucky kid. I can't say as I am

Mr. Wilmot dropped in for supper last night. He & Bob went out for a "time" afterward. Well be good & give me a thot once in awhile. [written in left margin] Lucia is up in Frisco, having a "time"--"Mother" has the parrot.
Amen, L.S.A.

Miss M. F. Stone.
