Letter signed T.K. Skinker to wife. I am still in hope Bella’s case will turn out no typhoid. I saw Mr. Eliot in reference to the Press-brick stock. He informed me that their business is in excellent condition, but they had to spend some $40,000 in improvements which prevents them from making dividends. Aleck & I looked at house #5635 Cates Ave. This is a nice house, but on a small scale. Aleck’s and Jane’s friends visit: Sterling Edmunds, Agnes Blessing, Paul Laidley. Dr. Winchester was sick 3 of 5 weeks in Madison., 1901 Aug 25

Letter signed T.K. Skinker to wife. Susie and I spent this afternoon examining houses. The people were sitting out in the front yards, so that I could see who our neighbors would be. I therefore do not stop to describe West Belle, Nos. 4161 and 4175 [4161 West Belle and 4175 West Belle]. If you leave it to me, I will take a lease on the Robertson house., 1901 Aug 25

Letter signed T.K. Skinker to wife. Your three letters of 22d, 23d and 24th all came to hand this morning, and I now understand why Aleck and Jane were sent home.

9:15 pm. Letter signed Bertha R. Skinker to husband. Describes gravity of Bella’s case. I have written and telegraphed to Bertha that the house hunting will devolve upon her.

Letter signed T.K. Skinker to wife. Your letter gives me a very clear understanding of your situation and Bella’s condition. Tell her I will agree to laugh at none of Bertha’s jokes till she comes home. Nothing could be fairer than this. Carroll Stribling and Will Maffitt inquired after her today. I have inspected house no. 4318 Laclede. It is dirty and nearly opposite to Mike Hanick’s residence and wagon and mule yard., 1901 Aug 27
