"2/18 '10. Dear Sister. Martha, rec'd your letter yesterday. We didn't get up early enough to go home this morning but are going this afternoon, and if you would just as soon wait until next Friday I would a little rather you would, I'm way behind with the work this week, but if you rather come this week, come ahead. If you shouldn't have school [?]. day you would have that much more time & would see the parade. In haste, Myrtle."
