User-Contributed Transcription such pleasant relations when an A.M.A. teacher in Tennessee I could not but wish that Ethel would be as fortunate.
I am glad you have some more white teachers Ethel
Dixie is quite well. I will tell a little experience for Mary's benefit. She takes such an interest in Dixie. Either the second or third Sunday we were in O. Dixie treed a cat. The cat stood the music of his bark as long as she could then got down and ran.
Dixie pursued but the cat turned and gave him a scratch on the paw which has made the nail come off. We hope he will have his new nail in time to go over to Elyria Thanksgiving to eat turkey bones.
