Did you get out of hosp Sat at noon? Sure hope so; let me know as soon as you find out. Man is bringing Mother’s leg this weekend; sure will be glad when she learns to walk with it.

Got 2 letters from you today; see you’ll soon be coming home; what do you mean you might feel bad; you’re not that sick are you? Going out to your mother’s tomorrow night after work & go boat riding; wish you were here to go. The store was open till 9 tonight, so it’s late.

Payday. I get 2 wks vacation; think I’m changing my job; working myself to death, other girl is taking off, they won’t give me any help, can’t take it all alone, hard on my nerves. When I get the $20 I’ll pay on our rings; you said in your letter the money is on the way.
