My Dear Lena: It seems an age since I heard from you. Frank & Laura are not well & growing in yrs – so it takes all our efforts to pull through. I plan to write but as to [?] out when time come. I had a fine letter from Clara today, with Esther’s picture. Glad to have both. I would certainly appreciate a letter from you. Trust you & Mr. H. are in usual health. I will have a fine Xmas. Frank & Laura send Love – Lovingly – Bal 12-20-15

Dear Aunt Lena. Glad to get your subscription for paper. You may give me the money the first time you see me. Wish you could get down to spend the day with us soon. Della moved down to Hyatt’s this week. Have rented his farm. We wish you both a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year.

Clara was Lena’s niece, the daughter of Ella (Scofield) Kerschner. Della and Hyatt were two of Clara’s cousins on the Kerschner side of the family. Hyatt L. Frost was a prominent lawyer in Connersville. His sister, Della, was married to Carey E. Clifford.
