Grenna Friday [inscribed upside down: Thanks for bref.]
Yes you. Handcrafts saint
equal. Still there is a feel
to do at our cottage.
It looks gruesome dark
out for us. The painters are in
the road for the carpenters and
the carpenters are in the way of
the painters and the glass master
and the mason and the crook
rubber All our things
to stand still in Grenna
I have to stay here all the time
to Sunday. It will be the night
between Saturday and Sunday
I who I am allowed to stand in
order and pack up.
Virgin cannot come
up sooner than Tuesday morron. [inscribed: no one can live there sooner]
But don’t be worried. It
the whole must be clear. Out-
embellishment we make se-
dan. St John
