Do you recognize the two "freaks" of nature? Is it not awful? All our visitors have now gone. Willie would tell you some fine tales, did he not? We had a ripping time. It has been cold to-day but fine. Hope the sun will shine soon.

Yours to hand. We are having very nasty weather just now, though all the snow has gone. Fred said he saw your mother coming down on the train one day last week. Was it your grandmother who was with her?
