Excuse me for not ans. Your letter sooner, but I have been pretty busy for the last week. I am trying to get through this week but dont know if I will get quite through or not. I think I will rest up for a week or so and then take type-writing. That wont take but a few weeks. I dont know for certain yet
wheather [sic.] I will get a position or not at Knoxville. I am a little in hopes I will. I had thought a little about going home this summer. I guess you will be up here before long as your school will soon be out. I hope you will come before I leave if I dont get a position.
No, I didnt see anything in the Journal about the fair for I very seldom read the paper and when I do I usual just look at the headlines. Ill bet you did have a fine time. I sure wish I could have been there. I am coming to you school closing if I have to catch a freight to get there on. But I dont think I will have to do that I guess I will be out Friday or Thursday week. I am writing this in school and have to write it hurriedly I dont know if you can read it or not so excuse it. Ans. Soon.
With love
P.S. Say let me know how many days your school closing lasts and about when time it will be best so I will know just when to come.
