Good friend, Alert Solaas,

Thank you very much for the last letter you sent to Stoghton, but now I have left Stoghton and gone to Madison, and the last letter was sent from Stoghton and to Madison, and it was on the postoffice for more than 3 weeks because they in Stoghon had ... I understand that your uncle is dead, are you alone on the farm now? Then I guess it must be lonesome.[Ole Waagseth died 8/23/1910] I am always healthy and "tidig" (feeling fine), and I wish the same to you.......have I started to work on the same workshop as last year, but I think that in the summer I will start with carpenter work again. Will you stay at the farm during the winter, or not? SIGVART and GUDRUN (?) have got a little ???(child), well he was baptised 14 days ago. I shall greet you from them.

You are kindly greeted from me,
Ole [Hermanson] Heggebo

Greetings from Krissten and Synneve og Henry Mennes (?) I will go to town soon and make a portrait again, and then I will have made some of the Fos-ladies again, too, at the same time. Ole Good by, Greet your sister Dorthea [Tea] from me. Ole
