Scope and Contents

16 June 1942

1 small folded sheet, 4 pp.

Came home from the station, but couldn’t sleep, so I wrote you a few line. Called your mother & told her you were all right & had a good seat; she told me you told her you’d pay half my phone bill, but not to tell you she told me; please don’t tell her I told you; she likes me plenty. I’ll talk to you tomorrow might; will be glad to know if you’re on the same job. Writing to Jimmie so he’ll come tomorrow night. Will try to see Mother this weekend.

I’m here in hosp beside Mom; she’s getting better but will be here 3 more wks; Carl, Jimmie, Edna, & a girl with Jimmie are all here; we’re going to leave for Akron. I am dying with the heat. How is work? Sorry you had to work today. I’ll be with you soon all the time.

All I do is think of you; would like to see you this weekend, but I’ve paid so many bills; maybe you could send money in couple wks so I could come up there. Trying to get all the children to give $25 a month and trying to get Dad, to all help mother; then I can come up there & be happy with you; I know I can get a job there. I am crazy about our ring.
