User-Contributed Transcription the edge of Northboro. To day we go over to Uncle Elmer's.We find riper apples here, and all sorts of vegetables - squashes & green corn, blueberries & whortle berries. We have a good morning walk and rides too.About the shopping, I do not seem to have any opportunity to do it to advantage. We stopped at Worcester long enough to do some but I found that being a stranger I sh'd pay as much for things as at home. Could I have an opportunity to go there with one of my cousins, I could do well.I had brown bread and hominy for breakfast this morn. It was good. We intend to get to Elyria next Friday night if nothing occurs to prevent (Aug 24)Great love to all from Nettie
