Translation

  Albuquerque, New Mexico My highly esteemed Comadre,

This letter is in reply to your very welcome letter in which I was happy to hear from you and the kids.

This letter leaves us well, thank God.

Well, I was very offended and very embarrassed because I thought that you were so angry that you didn’t even say goodbye when you left. I found out through other people. And Mr. Faustin sent word to me through Leonor when he saw her the other day. We haven’t seen Mr. Faustin, and I ask Ed if he doesn’t see him anymore, and he tells me he doesn’t. Well, I’m very happy that you are well over there.

 

But what got into you to go so far away? What are you doing there? Did you find someone boyfriend suitor (wiso)

Ha, Ha.

What did you do with your things? I’ve heard no more about your house than that you left it abandoned rented. They’ve gone twice over to Fina’s and haven’t found her.

Well, I think this is all for now. Give regards to Santos from Nori, and to Jesus from Junior. And from us, receive all of you the finest regards. And tell me when you’re coming.

Without further ado, your comadre who wishes you happiness, Felipita N. Baca. 1018 N. Walter St. Albuquerque New Mexico
