Dear Frankie:

I was so pleased to hear from you, and to learn that everything is going well for you.

Susan and Ralphie are very well, and growing so fast you would hardly know them. Susan goes to School, and does very well.

Everyone here is well, and spring has brought with it the usual activity. The slowers are starting to bloom, and the farm girls are already busy with their planting.

You must have enjoyed seeing the Haiti Play and Member of the Wedding. I have heard they are both excellent.

I am always glad to hear from you, and especially to know you are getting along fine.

With kind regards and best wishes to your mother and to you

Sincerely yours,

Miriam Van Waters Superintendent
