Dear Lyndon,
Thanks for your letter.
I am glad you had a nice trip via Canada.
Yes, we have had rather a tragic summer this year but the autumn is making some amends.
I think most of the farmers in this district, except the stockers, had got their corn quite well.
Of course it has been very much otherwise on the East Coast & some other places--
By all means over-draw your account a bit if you want to—with kind regards
Yours sincerely,
George V. Tovey
