Dear Friend.

    I will try to answer your letter which I rec'd some time a-go, how do you like this kind of weather I dont like it at all.
    Sorry to say that we will have to postpone going to Dellroy Sun, for I cant get a horse but we will go some time if we have to fly.
    Mr Kuhn and I were in town Monday night. He told me he was going to ask Lory if he could take her to Pleasant Hill the 21st.
    Wouldent I like to see them come in, he was talking about her the whole way to town and back. I would answer yes and no.
    There was a mad-dog on this ridge yesterday it bit two of Smith's dogs then it went towards our house but dident get here it turned around went back to Smith's on the way back it tried to get in the buggy with Mr Ulman. When last seen it was going toward Sherman's. hope it will get a load of shot.
    I heard there was going to be another wedding over here during the holiday's. dont think because because I said here it is me for it is not (no sir-ee) It is Charley and Sadie. dont know if it is true or not.
    Have you been over to church yet dont know if I will go before the 21st or not maby I had go and get acquainted with the church not the people Ha Ha,
    Are you going to Endeavar Sun night I am if they have it will see you there
    Well I must close and get my lessons for Hazel is looking daggers at me she dont allow letter writing at school.
    Hoping to hear from you or see you soon I still Remain Your Friend H. Smith, H

Kind Friend.

    I told you I would send that letter today. You will have to pardon me for not sending it as it was impossible for me to do so.
    You think I said in it, that I wouldent be over Sat night. No, I said that we would go to church if you want to. and another thing was, what I told you tuesday night at church. I will tell you more Sat night.
    Wish I would of known that you was over at Shermans the day they butchered, would of liked to of been in that greasing match myself.
    What did you think of Mr Kuhn tuesday night. I dident think very much of it, Warner and I told him so going home too. I had a gun with me but I dident take it with the intention of shooting like that, I took it expecting to see a mad-dog or something of that sort. think it made him about half mad but I dont care. John Rutledge told me last night that he was geting a guitar he wanted me to give him lessons but told him I couldent but would show him the chords.
    I will have to close for it is about time for my class, Hoping to see you soon I still remain

Your Friend,

Harry.
