Dear son,
Im writing this slow cause i know you cant read fast. Your pop read that all accidents happen within 20 miles of home so we moved. Can't send you the address as the last arkansas family that lived here took the numbers with them so they wouldnt have to change their address.
That coat you wanted, aunt billy-mae said it was too heavy with them buttons, so we took them off and put them in the pockets.
Your sister had a baby yester morn. Don't know if its a boy or girl so dont know if youre an aunt or uncle.
Three of your friends went off the bridge last week. One was drivig the other two were in the back. The driver lived, he rolled down the window and swam to safety. The other two drowned, they coulnt get the talegate down.
Please write back. It you dont get this letter, let me know and i will send another one.
Love, ma
