Dearest
We all miss you terribly. It is lonesome without you. The thermometer is quoted four above zero. We are all well and comfortable in the circumstances.
I returned from Clarke County about ten thirty last night and found the boys all asleep and everything all right. To-day was so cold I thought it best for the boys not to go out to the Glover’s for school. The class met here.
Probert came home to lunch with us.
Zoona is doing fine.
Miss Edith is still confined to bed but improving steadily.
I called on Mrs. Barklie but found her out—attending a meeting of anti-prohibitionist. In fact, at the time I called she was at tea at the Pattens.
I talked with her and May Brown over the phone to-night. I placed the car at her disposal, which seemed to please her.
I hope you are having a fine time and that it is not too cold for pleasure out doors. I phoned Weaver about 1602—He agreed we should accept $12500
I delivered dinner invitation to Walton Moore at the Jackson dinner.
Please thank the Herters for me for their kindness to my darling. Have a good time. Much love from all four of your fellows—
Cary
