As I see that you receive letters from all parts of the country, I
thought you would like to have one from this place. I am one of
five boys in a family. We all enjoy reading the paper, even to my
little sister, although she can only look at the pictures. We get
it regularly every week. We have a pair of goats and a wagon. They
resemble Rocky Mountain goats. We have a harness to fit our goats,
so that we are able to drive a double team. Their names are Jack
and Billy. They are snow white. The place I live in is large and
shady. It is situated on a lake, in which we bathe. We are
fifty-eight miles from New Orleans, where my father is in business.
We have also a pony which we ride. Her name is Fate, and she is
very gentle.
