My dear ones at New York City

            We recived your little blue colored letter yesterday we are sure thankful you are alrigth when we dont hear from you when we expeckt we imagen all kinds of evil things and also you seeme to be twice as far away. I suppose the hottest seas is past for New York this summer I hope so any way. the nigth between last thursday and friday we had a big elecktric storm it lasted from 10 p m thursday  and kept on all nigth untill 8 a m friday it ligthning all the timw and roared untill our windows skaked I kneeled down in my corner in the big room and I prayed to our Heavenly Father to let the storm pass without any destrucktion and to help me so I could not be to nerveous, theere never come much rain with it but this storm was a blessing as it cooled off the air and we have not heard but what it passed without doing any damage at all.

            Gus and Grace and the children camd down last evening they came for berries from FOs place only two cases as they can buy the berries much cheaper in Preston 12 qt for $1 when you pay $1,15 for a case of 12 of them little cups here in N. Logan I have picked and put up 11½ qt of fresh raspberys from our patch and I have made some jam, I have just one more small picking to do and then I am through picking berries for this year. aur astrican apples are ripening but the are awful small but what there is of them test good, it tastes a little fågel said the Lady when boiling the stick the black bird been sitting on, ha ha

            O yeas I was to tell you the Johnson family are all well only Grace seeme to feel mirsable but she dont let on when she read your letter last evening she cryed and cryed when the left here the called to FOs and stayed there untill 11 30 p m,

            F.O. and family are all O.K. your Dad is no better or no worse for all I can tell it his case is a mystery to me sometime when he walks along he walks just as natural and then again when he sit on them tree stumps in the lane I can tell it is a hardship for him to even draw his breath, well but days comes and days goes and we can be thankful everything is as well with us all as it is. I feel we are greatly blessed, next friday the aged people of Cache Stake is to be taken way up in the Logan canion for their annual outing but I for one is not a going unless Floyd promise to come to take me ha ha for when he took us safely to and down them dangeres roads you know then I trust myself him take us up in Logan canion Frank is buisy every day or else I go with him I guess we better stay home and be on the level ground.

            Now for a little news first is that Coras second girl or Dorthea got maried last week to a Salt Lake guy that been freigthing belony to Logan & Smithfield from Salt Lake Cora is worried gray over it. and Parley Cronquist and a Wellswille  girl just got married they been to Bear Lake on a honeymoon trip. I have never told you about the McGills have I well Uncle Gus got run down with a car comming from work on July 10 he got badly brused up and I suppose he got hurt inwardly to as he took to hemmorage both trough his mouth and the bowels at the same time I heard from them last week Auntie Lovis says he can only have liqued food but he is getting along better then the Drs expeckted so you see every body get their turn of troubble.

            Well I guess I better close my letter now and go to work and wash the breakfast dishes it is 10 a m so you can tell how I keep my work up ha ha but I did not wanted to put af writting to you just as if this were of much important I am nerveous plaese escuse me, With Love Mamma x x
