Grand [?] Sask

Dear Mother

I guess you will be much surprised to find out that Bill and I have got another month extension and we have got a job near Regina for about three weeks threshing. We did not know that we could get it until we landed in Regina so we [?] yesterday and got it back this morning and we are out on the farm already. They have a nice place here, there are three brothers and they have about 10 quarters in crop. We saw Tell in Regina last night. We are so near broke that we have to work here because we would not have the money to go home so we had chance of all kinds of work here so we took it and we will try and arrange to get home before [?] is up. We do not know where we will be going to join our bunch yet but I guess we will be able to find out before our time is up. If you have those pictures finished and they turn out good I guess you could send them to us in care of J.F. Forbes Grand Coulle, Sask. If those of Bill and I turn out good send us a few extra and if you can find a good one of the Indian outfit would you please send it too.
