| Transcript | Castledamph June 10th 1896 Wednesday Dear Brother I am going to write you a few lines to let you know how we are doing We are all well here at present hoping to find that you are the same. The weather is very nice here at present, if it keeps dry for a few more days we will be preparing to go to the hill to gather the turf. I am attending school every day now. We had 31 at our School to day so it was not bad If their [there?] will be as many at it every day it will be very good Uncle James has got another Young Son on Monday 8th I think he will soon have a housefull (sic) of children after a while Well I suppose when I am writing I may tell you about Miss Tillie McCullagh being away to Omagh to learn to be a sales girl. She went on Saturday last and she has to pay £10 a year for her boarding So it will take some money to keep her going if she stops long in it I think that it is in Anderson's that she is I remain your Loving Sister to J.A.
