12 July 1890 Letter from Lee Emmitt Thomas to Florence Smith

Marion, LA 
July 12, 1890

My Dear Florence,

   Your letter was rec’d late Thursday eve on my return from the fishing frolic & I answer 
today to let you know that it will be impossible for me to come over on Sunday as I had 
first anticipated since there is preaching at “Concord” on Sunday & Mother [Susan George 
Thomas] desires the team in order to go there. I expect I shall go over on Monday if 
nothing prevents & if I do will be delighted to go to see you Tuesday night if agreeable.

   All the folks in town are talking of getting up a fish fry on the Loutre next week & I may 
possibly stay for that. I don’t think so however, as I am too anxious to get back to town 
& begin to get ready for court in August. There was a vast difference in your two letters. 
You are indeed an anomaly. Hope I’ll see you Tuesday night & find you in good spirits.


					I Am Yours,

					L. E. T.
