Harriet Edgoose's Correspondence (II)
"Aberdeen, S.D.
April 20 - 97
Dear Mrs. Riggall:-
Your letter with $75.00 was received last week I enclose the receipt & bills so you can see that it is all right.
She had $24.10 in money from Mr. FOSTER, the grocery bill was $19.00 & for hay $28.61, leaving her only $2.09 in money. She was sorry there was not a little more left as she wanted to get some seeds &c to plant this Spring. She was up here on one afternoon before your letter came, and I persuaded her to stay to tea with me & think she enjoyed it altho' I had to do a good deal of urging & in fact take her things right off before I could get her to stay, but we had a nice little visit. I feel so sorry for her she had to work so hard & her husband seems to have so little ambition (three words underlined). I think she is in the family way again, she looks it.
Our snow is all gone & we have had floods every where, Aberdeen had her share altho' no loss of life as there has been in other places.
Hoping you and your family are all well I am
Yours Sincerely
Angie D. Foster,
304 - 8th Ave,
Aberdeen, S.D.
