Mrs. O. Y. Bonner
Fairfield, Texas
Dear Aunt.
Just a few lines tonight to tell you that we 
are all well and getting along all right. I have 
been pretty busy the past month, have yet 
quite a bit of work to do at the other Stores 
in the way of collections and checking inventories.
We trust that you are feeling better and we want 
you to make your plans, so when we come down there 
this coming summer that you will be ready to come 
home with us and stay a few weeks, or if you 
will come sooner I will come for you any time, 
and I assure you that we will certainly be glad 
to have you make us a visit.
I am out of town about four days each week 
but come home most every night, in fact just been 
away one night since the first of the year. I 
was in Oklahoma City the First of February, went 
down one night and came home the next.
Our business has started off good this year, and 
we are hopeing for a bigger and better year 
this year.
Jim Ted is doing good in school and is still 
growing.
                with lots of love,
                Your Nephew, Son and Family
                       /s/ Jim Lee
