June 20, 1919 - George Hears from Cousin Grace Pautsch


1919-0620 – Grace Pautsch to William and Ella Jane Sherwood & family
pHOTO

Dear Folks:

            I received Aunt Ella’s letter and also George’s letter written in April and had hoped to see George when he went through.  But I was unexpectedly handed a two week vacation, beginning the first of June so of course I went home – and George is probably home by this time.  Oh yes, I also got his card write on June 5th saying that he would be through in a few days.  I was certainly sorry to miss him but hope to see you all soon.

            I am planning on spending the Fourth with you, if it is convenient for you.  I hope they will give me Saturday morning off also so I can spend Saturday and Sunday with you too.  Please let me know if that would be convenient for you, just drop me a card within the next few days so that if you would rather I come some other time, I can make other arrangements for the Fourth and visit you later.

            I left the folks at home all well. Norine was still busy housecleaning and Dad has enough work to keep him busy most of the time.  He was down to Janesville the first of last week attending the Alumni of the School for the Blind. 

            Mary and Ernest and Sherwood, who is quite a boy now, were all well and a letter from Evelyn which I received yesterday reported her and Gene busy and happy.

            Dad’s brother Fred and his wife and two children are planning on spending the Fourth in Beaver Dam.  Aunt Annie may stay longer and keep house for a while so that Norine can go visiting.  I think she (Norine) will come here for a week and possibly run up to see you for a time, but her plans are not very definite yet.

            Don’t forget to just whisper whether you want me or not and if I do come you’ll hear from me again, with time of arrival, etc. –

                                                Love to all from niece and cousin,

                                                                        Grace
