Letter to Frank Alexander from Lloyd C. Alexander 01-17-23

Pinedale Wyo
Jan. 17 - 1923
Dear Uncle Frank:
I don’t remember whether I answered your last letter or not. We have been having quite a time down here I have had the pneumonia, been in bed five weeks and Jack has been in bed four weeks with the bronchitis. The rest of them has had bad colds. Us three kids started to school here in Pinedale last Sept. Tuff is the only one able to go. Jack and I are up about the house but we haven’t been out-side yet. Grand-dad and dad are alone up on the ranch this winter.
The new county officers are moving into town to take up their business.
Have you done any trapping this winter. I see by the St. Louis fur market that furs are up pretty high again. Coyotes up to $30, Beaver $30, martin $60, muskrats $5. How is the weather up there this winter. It held off pretty good down here, but when it did come it put down a lot of snow they say there is over three feet at home, there isn’t much over a foot here in town.
Well I guess I will ring off. answer as soon as you can and let us know how you are.
Lloyd.
