Claude O'Dell to Mr Austin O'Dell
April 19th, 1915
Dear Father & All
Am glad you telephoned
to me Saturday night so I know
just how Ma is. It is pretty
tough on you & I guess tougher
on her. I should think if
Daisy is able to run around
so much she might help you
take care of Ma some. She
was telling me she wanted to
get home so fastto help take
care of her. Any how she could
be a little more pleasant and
not so cranky. She perhaps will
have to get over the idea she
is the only person. Other people
have had babies & not been so
ill tempered & I guess she could
be a little less so if she tried.
I wish I could be there to help
you some. I do hope you can
get Mrs Elliot to come for awhile.
Wwe are all ok.
I have got lots of work to do, but I am
going to try to get
along along until
? ? ? & George
can help. I hope
you keep well &
that Ma improves.
Hope to hear you
are getting a long
better
Love & best wishes
Claude
