From Elsie Adams To Albert Adams

GedclesS.D.18 Feb 1921

Dear Cousin Albert I  received your  letter a long  time ago.  And was sure glad to here from you.    Sure was glad to see those pictures.     I thought that those pictures were very good.    Why didn't Grandma take her picture.  We would like to see how she looks.

I  am writing two  letters tonight.    Yes papa he-is got his corn out.    We was shelling corn today.    Our neighbor was shelling corn.    Papa has got all  his hay hauling up alright.    We are getting ready for spring.    I am getting ready for spring to.

I  am not going to school  this year.  But  George,  Rosie and Mable are all going to school.

None of us wern't sick all  winter.    Well what  are you doing the winter ? What are your  folks doing ?    I suppose getting ready for spring.   How,are you getting along and how are all  the other folks doing.   I am sure fine.    I wasn't sick all  winter.   All the rest of the folks are fine too.

Are there any dances around there ?    There wasn't  very many dances around here this winter.    Was you to any dances ?  I wasn't to very many either.

Well   I think I  will  close for this  time.    So good by. Answersoon.

From Elsie Adams  to Albert Adams.    Tell Hello  to all the folks.Excuse me for my poor writing.  Because  I  am in a huriy. Tomorrow we have to shell corn and I  have  to get up early.

Mr. Albert Adams Chadron Nebraska

Dear cousin Albert We haven't heard from you for some time  ,  and so  I   thought I would drop you a few lines anyway,  as  I want you to know it is going to be a Mask Dance  ( Have you ever seen one ?)  this next Saturday night.  And Mable is wondering if you would let her use your boots,  as she needs a pair in her making up for that night. You can just almost know how she is planning on dressing can't you ?    I don't believe I will Mask myself but  I  am planning on watching them.     I  think it would be a great deal  of fun  just to watch and see how many different customs are used.     It is so hard to tell  if you are Masked yourself.    Are you expecting to come up and will Fern come too ?

Mamma,  Papa,  and Earl came home Sunday night,   they arrived at midnight.

Tomorrow - is painting day again,  and so I  guess  I  will  go and start another picture,  as we have a nice  lot of  cardboard to use up for such work.

I  suppose you took notice in your  last Van Tassel 1 Booster that Wards girl  is now working at the hotel here.

I got a  letter from Lawrence  ,  Grandma and Red the other day and another from Red today,  so I  am pretty posted on the doings at 33 Ranch.     So do Albert,   let us know if  you are coming up Saturday morn.

Your Coz. Bell

Hoping you can come Saturday for sure

 

From Mable to Albert

Van Tassel 1 Wyo.6 Feb 192 0

Dear Albert

How be you today.  I  am fine.     I will  write you a  line to tell you I  am still  going around on two feet.    How is every  little thing in Chadron ?

There is going to be a dance here a week  from tomorrow night.     I will write and tell  you who's going  to play.    I  do not know now,  but  I will   find out.

Bell  wrote you a letter today.    How is your  girl making it down there now ?   Tell  her to write to me will  you.    I am going to a dance tomorrow night if I  can and so is Bell.     Bell  was over to her place this week.

If you want me to write any more you will   have to write and tell me something, you see so I will  close  for  this time.

With Love and Kisses X X X X x o o o o o

Mable.
