My Darling:

This has been a fine day, but rather cool. These are delightful days to drive and scenery is very beautiful as the foliage is so many colors. Am sorry that my schedule is not better so I can have your letters on time.

I have had one good surprise today and that was in selling Karg Brothers of Johnstown, leather manufacturers, 75 calendars for $202.50 They bought “When the Fishermen Come Home” in our most elaborate style. Have one other order for $16.25. This business helps out. Most concerns out here are rather closed up, or at least are hedging on expenses.

Hope you are all well and happy. Hope you are glad that I am planning to come home. Your affectionate

Jack.

If you're new to this project, please consider going to our site and catching up with a few letters from the 1900-1910 era. The letters only take 3-5 minutes to read and you'll find the characters more fully develop if you read the letters chronologically.


John has excellent handwriting. However, in some instances, I cant decipher it. If I can't, I simply mark the spot with "xxx"s to signify thank the word isn't decipherable.
