[Letter from Laura Jernigan to Charles and Mary Moore, October 12, 1890]

Jack and Lee have had some problems with getting the wheat. They had to hire help. She mentions they have been having bad weather. Jack's father died and so he will have to go back because of the will. She wonders where his mother will go and also Mrs. Lucas. She mentions she now has eye glasses. She would like to have them visit her, and even tried to go visit them for the fall, but it fell through. She talks about the schooling of her children and how she might have to send them to boarding school. She would like the Moores to write back a long letter.
