Goodlet, Tex April 3, 1918

Dearest Bro. I will write you a few lines. We read your letter to-day. Was
glad you was well and doing fine. This leaves us all doing fine. Mama is
able to sit up. She has been up nearly all day today. And the baby is
doing fine. She sleeps nearly all the time. She sure is good.

Well we haven't got any rain yet. It sprinkled here a little Friday eve.
You would not know it rained any tho unless you would be out in it. We had
an egg hunt at the school house. Well we all went from the school house
Friday eve and went down on the creek to hide the eggs. Miss Porterfield
bought the eggs and we got what eggs we found. I found 7, Earl 15, Cephas 2
and Estelle 4. Earl found more than anyone else. These six I sent you was
some of them. It sprinkled on us as we came home. There was a singing
convention at Goodlett Sunday. Estelle and me didn't go but sis and Walter
was over there and run ???? joint and they said there was about a thousand
people there. Walter took in thirty five dollars. Maryon Watkins said he
went to the church and as he stepped in at the front door some one stepped
in the back door and shoved him out. I claim that was a pretty crowd for
Goodlett. They are going to have one at Holeane the fifth Sunday of June and
Estelle and me are planing to go by there if we can. Sis got a letter from
cuz Lidia Henley a few days ago and Jim is a soldier. His address is J. I.
Smith Co. K. 348 inft. Camp Pike, Ark. Well as ever your sis, Eudira.
