Hello Harlan how are you.
I guess you got home all right.
We went to Slautoule Town (I would guess that maybe Everett is trying for Slovak Town?)Sunday
but it rain and was too wet to play ball.
Has your neck ever got well?
Everett
When this card was received by Harlan neither he or the sender Everett(Adams)could of known that five months later(to the day) that Harlan would die from a ruptured appendix. Playing ball is where these cousins interests were focused
Dear Brother
I will write you a few lines this because still on our feet hope it will find you all well. We had the miss fortune to loose Daisy last Monday.(* as you can see the corner of this card is missing I am not for sure if Daisy is the dog, mule, or cow but certainly
a member of the family- even if she had four legs I know she did her part when it came to fetching or pulling or giving milk.)
(* written around the outer upper corner) Alice will write Pa a letter before long(*This card had to be either from Maude or Alma)
Dear friend
I will ans. your card I got Tue. You folks Be sure and come over Sat. eve. We played a game of ball Sun.
ED adams
This card was sent from Hazen Arkansas to Carlisle Arkansas a distance of about 10 miles to bad they couldn't just email each other!
Dear Friend
Be sure and match a game with Zion for Easter
If Ben Penberton Don’t play with us I will ketch
Wright and tell me and I will bring a mask.
EA
Playing Ball was about all the entertainment there was in small communities
It seems that Harlan has a fan club or maybe just and older sister who would like to hear from an younger brother
