Writing Sample

Translation

Greetings, my very dear friend,
I am writing to you again, a little. I have not seen another letter from you since I wrote to you. I am wondering how you are. I wonder if you are in good health. I would really like to hear from you folks. Today's mail-plane will be the last to arrive before the freeze-up; therefore I am writing this letter this morning so that I may send it off immediately. I myself am well at this time.
