Calif
Oct
6 – 1924
Dear Mrs Peterson –
I have
just been looking over my old letters and find your letter of the 29th
of June, time I was making you a little visit by mail. We are all well and
moved over to Livermore the 18th of June and have had to live in the
hotel as there isn’t any houses or apartments to be had here, just a very small
town.
I have
not heard from Louise since I called her over the phone when I was over to
Oakland and visited some friends in June, and was going to spend a week with
here, but by way she talked she didn’t have time and room for me
to visit here, and she never writes to me. I suppose she has been home by now.
We have
started buying a home [?] in Oakland but are going to move over there and take
charge of the place the first of next month. I surelly be glad, It is a new
five room modern bungalow, hardwood floors living room has fire place book
cases, [?] desk build in. Dining room had built in buffet, has a hall between
the two bedrooms bath room off of hall with linen closets off here, shower
bath, nice cloths closets off both bed rooms. kitchen has tiled sink, nice
laundry with stationary wash tubs. lovely yard, side walks all in Anna Frye
doesn’t have far to go to school We have run arround so much that it will seem
mighty good not to have to move.
Well how
have you been this summer? We have been well so far, suppose you are fixing for
winter there now. I had a letter from Rogan this morning and said it had been
raining there also her Sunday, it rained all day. It has been so dry that every
one was so delighted to see it rain. Anna Faye had grown so much, so tall, she
thinks so much of Louise, talks of her many times. How is Grace and family,
also Frank and his family? And is Mr Peterson well? I was glad to hear you
nephew got to come and see you this summer. I guess you will be coming out to
Calif to visit Louise before very long again, Then I will be in Oakland and you
can visit me.
Anna
Faye says kiss Grandma Peterson for her. She remembers you just as well as if
she just saw you.
Well as
I am tired and sleepy I will bring this letter to a close, hoping these lines
find you well and to here from you soon. Walt and Aura Faye say hello.
With
lots of love.
The
Arthurs
Our Oakland address will be 4122 Redding Street.
