thank you for the flowers i threw them on the fire and i burned the photographs that you had enclosed god they were ugly children so you re that little bastard of that brother of mine trying to trick a poor old woman till i almost had a weakness last week cousin florence bit your uncle joe hit him on the forehead with a knife and a fork said that he looked like the devil then she said pass the vinegar i m beginning to think that i m the only one who hasn t taken to the drinking of it though i almost had a weakness it pains me to mention these delicate concerns but while i have to tolerate you family jewels i really mustn t grumble cause when i die the cats and dogs will jump up and down and you little swines will get nothing though i almost had a weakness
