Transcript of message written by
Alice Dunbar Nelson
:
You notice how [illegible name] & Tie are guarding Buddie & [illegible name] (over).
[illegible] treat us this way.
We tried to guard the fudge but [illegible]!
[illegible] appeared and we all join in talking you.
Our "guy" had the nerve to say that it tasted like [illegible].
[illegible] about the gesture?
Write soon
Sincerely,
Alice
