       Dear Ones and All

       Miss you all. Have been busy today. Coun Maud preserved her crab apples

       and she gave me some, so I made 6 bottles of jelly and a qt. of jam.

       She also gave me Burbank plums and we filled all but 2 bottles of mine

       with jelly and I guess a dozen glasses for her. I made a dozen glasses of

       for her. I made 10 quarts of jam and could make all I could put up if I had

       sugar and jars. When Wm. comes out have him bring 1 dozen quart jaers

       for I borrowed some from M. Get them at Clarence;s store. I also

       borrowed 6 cups of sugar. Hope you are getting along fine.

       Love to all. Mother”
