My own Darling Lillie. Pen can not write nor tongue can not speak, the greatness of my love for you. I love you so darling that life without you would not be worth living. I dream of thee, I sigh for thee and Darling if the (?) must be, I would die for thee. And Lillie never will I be happy until we are man and wife for I know we will be happy then. Dearest Lillie the tears from my eyes are falling, and my hand is trembling so for the love of you, I cannot write any more. Your True lover now & forever. A.M. Patterson, March 14, 1898 It must have been true love! This photo is of my grandparents and their 11 children...
