Carrie Peocock
Sunday, March 8, 1863Dear Uncle George,
Papa is going to help me write to you. Uncle Charlie has been home and I wished you were here, too. He came in the night. I was awful glad to see him.
I wanted to go to Sunday School today, but it has been snowing. I have learned a whole Psalm. I have almost read my second book through.
Mama sends a kiss to you and of course I send one, too, or two.
From your niece,
TuteRead the letter Carrie wrote to her Uncle George when she was eight years old. Does her writing seem formal for a child of today?
