Dear Aunt I take this
opportunity of writting [writing?]
you these few lines to let
you know that we are
pretty well I herd [heard?] my
Uncle was bad with a
cold I hope he is better
now I thought to get down
to see you before now but I
was not able to go with pain
in my legs Joseph sold
the bulls in Omagh fair at
16 10sh [shillings?] he bought young
[Page 2]
pigs on Saturday at 3 pounds
He has began to plough
Dear Aunt you and Willy

Christmas leave we have
builded [built?] a nice little house
in the bog down the brodd [broad?]
road I hope Grandmother
is getting through the winter
pretty well
No more at present but remain yours
truly Eliza J Steele
