" I want that Hilda my sister she gets the north sixtie akers where I am homint now. I bet she don't get that loafer husband of hers to broke 40 akers next plowing time. She can't have it if she lets Oscar live on it. I want I should have it back if she does.

" Tell Momma that the $600 she been looking for for 20 years is berried from the backhouse about 10 feet. She better let little Frederick do the digging and count it when he comes up.

" Pastor Lucknitz can have $300 if he kiss the good book he don't preach no dumbhead talks about politicks. He should a roof put on the medinghouse and the elders should the bill look at.

" I want it dam sure that Oscar don nothing get. Tell Adolph he can have $100 if he prove to judge Oscar don get nothing. That sure fix Oscar...."
