Dear Uncle,
I write these few lines to let you know that Mother has had rather poor
health sice Father died. She has come to spend the winter in my house and
she is going back again in the spring to look after her orchard. I got
married last April and we have had an increase of a young daughter on the
25th February. You wanted to know if Father had said anything about money
that he had borrowed from you. He did not say anything about it on his
deathbed but he always intended to come over to see and pay you but mother
could not think to part with him but now they are parted for a short time
when they will meet again to part no more. Mother remembers getting the
money and she will pay it, so you will receive a P.O. order payable in
Paisley, Scotland, for £5. If you cannot call personally you will require
to sign your name on the order. Give our kind love to Mr and Mrs Morton
and cousin Elizabeth. Please accept the same yourself. No more at present
but remains
Your loving Friends
Robert Good. Please
answer and let us know how you are getting along and if you have got the
money all right. |
