June 17, 1921<br>Glenshaw R D 1<br>Dear Children,   I am still among the living.  We got out here about 6 o'clock by fast time last eve.  Well I don't know that I am lotzs worse than before.  Dr. Lamb told me I was on the table for near an hour and they are sending.....trouble away to some laboratory to have it anilized so I wont know before next Tuesday what they will do with me whether it will be treatment or an operation.  [[William Dietrich|Will]] and wife [[Mary Frederick|Aunt Mary]] and [[Louisa Dietrich|Aunt Loue]] were all in to meet us.  I don't know what they were expecting but there faces denoted everything but courage and cheer.  Well we are to go over to Aunt Lues for dinner today.  We are helping cut sweet williams.  We had 54 bunches cut when I came in to write and there are that many more still __ me.  You can tell [[Frederick Edwin  Kline|Fred]] you heard from me.  I will write to them when I find out anything more definite. Dont say anything over the telephone that will create curiosity.  Well I guess this is all.  Remember me to the kiddies, with love from Mother.<br>When you write send it in care of Wm Dietrich.
