User-Contributed Transcription expect some large execution to better result. The president of the society is a vigorous worker of 80 years in age. She is wise and tactful as well as energetic and she keeps things moving both briskly and smoothly. Sometimes 20 or 30 ladies gather in these meetings for work, and I believe usually as many as fifteen or twenty. They meet once in two weeks.I am sure you had a good visit at Holland Patent the other day. I wish I could have been there, too. Is Frances well? Does she enjoy her work? When I saw her three years ago, she spoke of taking a medical course sometime, Does she still contemplate doing so?Is Clara enjoying her vacation, now nearly over with? I wish I could drop into Oneida County without ceremony, and have a little visit there. I hope Aunt Jane is well.Next Sunday I am hoping to drive the family to Western Park. We have open air services there that day in a grove a mile from the church, and people are going to bring their lunches and stay all day. We expect to have a good attendance and a profitable time. I believe I wrote to you that our Junior Endeavor Society was entertained on our lawn last Friday. After 30 were present. We fed them sandwiches & cake on the little wooden butter plates or shells from the grocer store. & gave them lemonade, all they could drink. and I guess some of them never drank so much lemonade at one time before. Love to Mary. - You will I am afraid have to tell me Mary's new name again.With Much LoveJ.E. Everett.
