Abstract:
Comments on writing and receiving letters, including from cousin Tommie in Memphis. Will write to her Uncle Nick because her mother requested it, despite her disinclination due to hard treatment. Provides insight into Uncle Jimmie's "case," seemingly with a woman that Dallie does not respect. "... if he is willing to do what I wrote cousin Tommie he must, make himself a perfect fop, I do not think he need be uneasy about winning a 'yes' from her rosy lips." Asks after her mother's satisfaction with Mrs. Pitts, who cooks and cleans for her. Asks after her younger brother and sister.
