November 17, 1980 Aunt Estelle wrote

Monday  Rain wind more rain.  I baked 2 cakes to take to the Russell family.  Neither was right.  This afternoon I helped Randy in the tobacco for 4 hrs.  Jennings was in a minute.  Lucille called tonite. 


Footnote:   She noted a couple days ago that Dewey Russell had died.  I think he is a neighbor.  Guess they didn't get any cake if that is what she means that neither of them were right.   Randy is the guy - probably her tenant farmer for the tobacco crop - who is grading the tobacco getting it ready to go to market for sale.   Jennings is her brother and he lives nearby.  Lucille is her sister who lives in Goodrich, Michigan.
