won't we darling.

I'm glad you could leave
New York though. You certainly
needed to for you were awfully
tired and sort of seedy, I know,
and you'll have a nice time
out thar in San Francisky
with your family and get a
good rest and some Western air
in your lungs.

Never wrote such a long letter
before so I'm going to quit,
you'll have to read it in relays.

Goodbye my Sneddie, Betty
loves you, oh gosh, I do — so
much! Don't be gone too long or
I'll come after you my own darling
Sned. Lots of love and some
more slobbery kisses (ugh!). When I
recover from this letter I'll write again.

xxx from your own Elizabeth "Betty" Marston Black.
