Continuing the cousin-connect, Net got a birthday card from her cousin Retta Wallace Francis.
Card - Front
Card - Inside
Card - Reverse
"Dear Nett: I must add a few lines to your birthday card. I hope you have a happy one - I am so glad you and Billy keep so well - I get along fine as long as I keep my B.P. under control - I look fine but it is caused by inward nervousness - so, I try not to let things worry me that I can't control. I have a nice widow moving in to the duplex on Sat. She is 65 and should be company for me. I think I told you Dorothy1 expects the stork in Aug. We are all hoping for a little girl this time (for her sake as that is what she wants so badly) but whatever comes will be welcome.
The xxxx and towels came through fine I do use them for cookies etc and they are so high in the stores. Maybe I did write & thank you - I forget. It was nice of you to go to all that trouble. I'll give Dot some of them. We had a wonderful rain. Today is so beautiful isn't cool enough to suit me. I must close & catch the mailman - Love, good wishes
from Retta"
