Title:     Hillbilly letter
Date:      Mon Aug  9 05:30:14 1999

Dear Louanne Ellie Mae:
I'm writing this letter slow because I know you can't read fast. We don't
live where we did when you left home. Your dad read in the newspaper
that most accidents happen within 20 miles from your home, so we
moved. I won't  be able to send you the address because the last West
Virginia family that lived here took the house numbers when they moved
so that they wouldn't have to change their address. 

This place is really nice. It even has a washing machine. I'm not sure it 
works so well though.  Last week I put a load in and pulled the chain and 
haven't seen them since. 

The weather isn't bad here. It only rained twice last week, the first
time for three days and the second time for four days. 

About that coat you wanted me to send you.  Uour Uncle Stanley said it 
would be too heavy to send in the mail with the buttons on so we cut them off 
and put them in the pockets. 

John locked his keys in the car yesterday. We were really worried because it 
took him two hours to get me and your father out. 

Your sister had a baby this morning; but I haven't found out what it is 
yet so I don't know if you're an aunt or an uncle. The baby looks just like 
your brother. 

Uncle Ted fell in a whiskey vat last week. Some men tried to pull him out, but 
he fought them off playfully and drowned. We had him cremated and he burned 
for three days. Three of your friends went off a bridge in a pickup truck. 
Ralph was driving. He rolled down the window and swam to safety. Your other 
two friends were in back. They drowned because they couldn't get the tailgate 
down. 

There isn't much more news at this time. Nothing much has happened.     

Love, 

Mom

P.S. I was going to send you some money but the envelope was already
sealed.
