Letter No. 12

Dear George
I am just going to write to tell you about our fouls. We have 42 ducks and 10 geese, 23 chickens and 12 turkeys at present. Anna and Kate go to school as Miss Thirkettles and I suppose I shall go again at Midsummer. Your boy Nunn get a wonder, he sleeps with me in your bed as he calls it. When we ask him where you are he generally say you are in the Beet House. His Grandmama Draper sent him a very nice top and he calls it his cock. I suppose you have heard Aunt John have another son. I have no more news to tell you.
I remain
Your affectionate Sister
E. Chandler
