Bosqueville Texas Sept. 12
Miss Tea Love
Dearest Tea
I have just finished my letter to brother John
and will now write to you. We arrived here safe and
sound we are all boarding at Mr. Burgers. I am
verry much pleased with Mr. Collier I think he is an
excellent teacher. Tea I do wish you would come up here
to see us but I know you will not. Tea Mr. Collier told
us to write a letter to him and give them to him
next friday we have all got ours written except Nannie
who found a novel to read and could not write.
There are three girls boarding here Eno young,
Minnie Kuykendall, Frannie Daniel. They are very nice girls
There are no pretty boys here. I saw Mr. Bradcock
as we were coming up here he looked so nice you wish
it had been you in the place of me dont you. We saw
another pretty boy in Waco. Tea -- Lizzie has written to
you Nannie is writing they can tell you all that I
don't write I have not been here long enough to get
acquainted yet so I dont know any thing to write.
Have you seen the captain since we left?
I am so tired. Tea please write me a composition and
send it in a letter. Maggie and Lizzie send their love to you.
Write soon to your friend, Mollie
Send this letter to John you do not know what I said
about you in my letter it was something good
