I wanted to again congradulate you on your new appointment as head School teacher! You deserve it so much. While it is sad that Miss Davens had to leave town, not one soul will think the children are in lesser care. God is good and has blessed you, and the entire community. I know that your Johnny must be very proud!
Speaking of, you know I do not mean to pry into your personal business, but I hope your Johnny is doing well. I know you are worried about him and fear he is losing his way, but take heart Prissy. Have faith that he will find himself and all will be well. These towns test men. My own John went through the same thing a while back. When he first opened the livery there were many many dark days. But God doesn't give us more than we can bear Prissy. Your husband will be fine. At least he has not turned to spirits and gambling. Many wives in town are forced to wait at home while their men lose their wages in the Broken Noose, or in Rosie's. Be thankful for small favors.
My my, have you seen the latest hat that Miss Daisy is wearing? Lord, what a sight! She had it shipped all the way from New York City! It is something to behold!! I tried my best to not laugh when I saw her walking down Main street yesterday. Bless her heart. It must be nice to have the money that she spends on such silly things.
Well Prissy, again I am so happy for you and your family. Red Creek is lucky to have someone like you here to mold it's young ones.
Your friend and neighbor,
Sally Roberts
