Transcription

Carl-Leon Hotel Office, Independence, Kan. 5-5-09 Dear sister - Rec'd your letter and card. Must say you embroidered your waist very fast. Was at John's to a party last Wednesday night and Sunday again for dinner and supper and then took the ear for choir practice. Had an enjoyable time on both occasions. We are invited to Lange's for next Sunday the whole family and we girle to K. Q.'s southwest of here. Think I will go to L's with the folks. Am at house cleaning now. Nearly all our garden "gasp" froze last week. With love, Sophia. Mrs. J. H. Meyer. Elk City, Kansas.
