Dear Sir

Mr. Robinson

I wish you to tell my daughters Eliza Annie & Mary & my little boy Albert that their father died 8th of this inst, rest of us are well and I want you to look after the children I dont want them to get lousy. When Annie came home this last time her head was sore and lousy and full of knits. She just got well when she return to Haskell. I'll try to go and see them sometime after payment in April please let us know How the children are getting along.

That is all for the present time.

Yours truly,
Ellen McCoonse
