Andover Mass Sept. 20

Dear Mother,
You must excuse this writing
as I have a hang-nail upon my little finger
which is painful in writing. I received your letter in the 4 P.M. mail.
Yours written Sept 15 arrived on the 18th in the
8:30 a.m mail. Yours of Sept 15 P.M. arrived
at the same time as the above one. I think
that I will buy my suit in Boston when I
go home next vacation (Nov.28) I will not need
any before. You ask if the boys trouble Seymore much
they have not touched him at all. You say dont
mind the hard seats in church, but if you were here
& enjoyed the luxury of a seat uncushioned
straight backed & with you feet so high above
the floor that they dangle or else you can put them
on cross[bars?] on the front of the pew which is just
as uncomfortable you would sing another tune.
