Monday Noon
Dear Folks,
I’ve got some little news and I’ve got to hurry to say it. After two o’clock this afternoon we won’t be able to send any more letters. I expect it will be just as well for you to hold up writing for a few days. Of course if you don’t heart from me for a good while it might be alright to send a letter here every 4 or 5 days so I’ll get some news just in case something happens I don’t expect.
I got your letter of the 7th today – I was very happy to hear about the big game.
I am OK and will write as soon as possible. God bless you. Don’t worry about me.
Love, Donald
