I receive a letter from you, and always
await a word from you with anxiety.
Now darling don't forget to do that
little bit for me, many are the hours
I lay and wonder what you may be
doing or where you are. I always think
of you dear and the days gone by and
hope to see some of them again.

I will close now darling. Give my
regards to your folks and uncle and
aunt. With much true love and many
kisses and a big hug from your lone-
some sweet heart.

Hienie
