User-Contributed Transcription We are keeping a good fire today. Our hard coal is exhausted. We are burning wood in a little heater with some soft coal with it. We do not get good wood. We are burning Cotton wood now. It is dry and makes a splended fire, but it burns right out. But soft coal mixed with it does better than either one alone. Elm is considered the best fire wood to be procured about here. In Michigan we did not esteem that variety very highly for such purposes. The wood we are burning now was cut about 20 miles or more from us.Will Glazier is doing well in College. He has but two years more in Olivet. He will graduate in '99. He has worked hard to keep himself in school. He has just about six years work into four.We hope to hear from you soon. We are anxious to know how you are.With Love J.E. Everett
