Aug 29, 1932-from Ruth to James

Dear Daddy,

Well to begin with do you want a cat? Well a few days ago Mamma heard something meyow and thought it was a catbird and when she looked it was the little kitty and my how he has grown we hardly know him and his black spots are black and gold and his white spots are the whitest you ever saw. Will you send us some brown paper and some cardboard boxes. we need them badly. Mamma made some choke chary jam with apple and it’s real good. Yesterday we had fried chicons and maccarony and biscut. this morning it was so foggy you couldn’t even see the second woods. well this is all the news so love from Ruth
