Redfield, Aug. 19 – 1910. Friend Flossie: Most time to go for dinner. Your cards at hand this morning. Carl was saying he thought he seen you run by him the other day, so as I take most of the ball games I kept a watch for you but did not see you. Huron beat us yesterday 5 to 2, we won the day before 4 to 0. They play again today. I did not take in any of the Lewis shows so cannot tell you anything about them. I understand they are to be here during fair week.

Post Card #6 of 7 – Delaying the Game

Their plays are mostly of the wild west, where the bold, brave man appears at the right time and accomplishes the impossible and as I do not take much stock in such I do not care to go. I would like to get down to the Huron Fair for a day or two, but think now it is out of the question, too short on cash. And as I have been taking in most of the ball games I may not get to our fair, but cannot say yet. I am in the office most of the time is why you did not see me, probably you would not know me anyway. How did your grain turn out. G.L.

Redfield, Sept. 1 – 1910 – 5:40 P.M. Friend Flossie: Your cards received a few days ago. Cold & cloudy today, makes a fellow wonder what has become of his summer wages. A bunch of 17 autos left this morning for Frankfort, Doland, Turton, Conde, Brentford, Mellette, Northville, Athol, and Ashton boosting for the Spink County Fair and just got back. Carl went along with Hutch in one of our cars. They were sure black when they got in. C.L. Nicholson & wife, Gen. Nicholson and our stenographer left by auto last Friday for a visit with the Nicholson girls who are on……….
