Hello Mom

Just a few lines to let you hear from
me. I am all O.K. hope you and the rest the
same. I don't know whe[ther?] I told you or not,
but I have got three packages. Sure was glad
to get them. They were nice. No, I haven't heard
from Ernest yet. Maybe it won't be long I sure
hope not. I wouldn't have known him if I hadn't
seen his name under his picture. He sure has
changed a lot. If it is any way of finding out about
the boy that came by the house one day let me
know I would like to know where he is at. He
said he would write me, but never did. Guess I
will stop for this time. Hope to hear from you
again soon.

Love
James
