also propose to give me employment that for 2 hours each day will net me from $6, to $10. per week Now if I can do this and also pursue my studies I can do better for my family than if I were here and at the same times carry ont the brightest hopes of my life. How is your mothers health this summer? I did hope to see you before leaving, in fact I cannot ask you or the boys to wait longer than this fall that I may see you once more before the event and still if you were ready tomorrow with one who can appreciate to love you, don't wait If we could get into your garden a little I tell you Your impression would be that we have no greens at our house. Kindest regards to all, from Your since friend Jno A. Griffins
