January 4, 1965 Aunt Estelle wrote

Monday   Fair  not cold at all

I washed and quilted some.  Uncle Hop come in awhile.  Allso Nell Reasor selling Avon. 


Footnote:   Uncle Hop is Hop Slemp and he is her uncle because he is married to Rose Baker Slemp who is Mamie's half sister.  They lived in a lovely house on the back road.  Last time I was down the back road, the house was still standing.  That was in July 2014 when I took Mother to Big Stone and we got with Janice and went to Lee County.   I wonder if Hop was his full name, I never knew or if I did I sure have forgotten.    Nell Reasor is not closely related - probably somewhere in the background there is some connection but I don't know what it is.  She has a son, George, that Smith Kevin knows.  I think Smith said George has cattle and they have done some work together regarding the cattle.  Smith is an auctioneer who deals in cattle - BIG BULLS, I think.
