Hello there Cloyd, say it has been so long since I had a line from you, I most forgot how it looks.

I wrote to you about 1 year ago, have received no answer, as yet.  It is good to be busy but I would like to hear from you and your dear family.

Duke tells me you have a family to be proud of.  I hear you have a depot close to where you live now which will sure help you greatly.

I am looking for Roscoe…

… and _______ or Ewell down tooday for a visit .  Vida & Frank were down the 13th..
I am feeling quite good.  Have a very nice room.  No. D in the hospital.  Ground floor south end of hall in hospital Room D. 1 room from end. On West side. I get 3 meals per day, a good bed, it made up, room swept and mopped up each day and my washing dome.  Clean clothes and a bath erry Thursday which is the best thing I ever had.

I guess I will stay with it probably til my Great Father calls me home.

I suppose you remember I was borned in 1842…
