THE COZY CORNER
December 13, 1896

LULA FOSTER, Chase, McLennan Co., Tex. -- I never called on the Cozy Corner before, but I would like to be admitted into your department. I am staying at my uncle's, going to school. I am in the fourth reader. I have five studies. My uncle has a baby boy named Roy Abner Foster. He is 7 months old. I have neither father, nor mother. They died when I was an infant. I help my aunt with her work, tend to the baby, wash, iron and sew.
