Will you soon go to school. I am in Wichita waiting for the train to go to Hope. I am so glad I will go home in a little while. I am having a good time. Arthurs want me to stay for the fair I had rather come home. With love, Mother.  Master Charles &amp; Willie Bishop, Hotchkiss, Colo.  R.F.D. #2"</text>
