dear sir i have been thinking over what i sed to
you when i hollered to Beany about your swaring
at me at the picknic last weak and i done verry
rong and please to forgive me. of coarse it wasent
so mutch becaus you swore so but becaus you are
a decon of the chirch and speek in prair meating
and so you hadent augt to have did it. but that is
no xcuse for me to sass you. father sed i wasent
verry mutch to blaim. he says he dont object to
swaring but when a man tries to be a decon and
plug ugly at the saim time it is the dam hippockrasy
of it that maiks a man mad. i only tell you this
to show you i was not verry mutch to blaim. but
i am verry sorry i done it. you needent tell father
what i sed, but i hoap you will try hard not to sware
so another time when there is wimmen and girls and
a minister present jest becaus a boy done what they
told him to do and cougt a eal.
yours very respectively

i bet that decon will be glad when he gets that
leter. i bet there aint many fellers whitch can write
a better letter than that. i bet Beany coodent. i bet
Pewt coodent eether. this is the letter i rote to old
Misses Peezley.

dear Misses Peezly. i am verry sorry for hollering
to Beany them things about you. when you
had that fit i suposed it was becaus you was mad
and i was kind of mad two becaus i had been
cheeted out of my fifty cents by the minister, becaus
i cougt a eal after they had told me to do it. then
i remembered that my father had sed once that you
had them fits when you wanted sumthing and kept
having them until you got what you wanted and
that he pitted mister Peezly.
so i dident think when i hollered to Beany and i
wish you wood pleese forgive me.
it is a awful thing to have fits when you cant help
it. mother says that peeple whitch have fits have to
be verry careful not to get xcited. so when you go
to a picknic again and enny feller throws a bull toad
or a snaik into your lap you must reflek that a bull
toad and a green snaik never bite or scrach and aint
poizen. if you had gnew that at the picknic you wood
not have had that fit. mother says that if peeple
keep having fits they get wirse and sumtimes go
crasy. so i hoap you will forgive me and will be
very cairful not to get xctied. it is dredful to have
fits and i am verry so
