My Dear Sadie

Here we are in our new home, far from being settled of course. Went to church & sunday school & expect to go tonight again.
The people seem very nice, I will not say whether I like it or not yet. Time only will tell. Tell your mother the garden is not as good as the one we left but what there is of it is good. Isn't the weather warm. Hope you had a nice day at the lake. Ethel
