I feel all worn out to-day after the long tramp and bike rides of yesterday. You must therefore excuse the spasmodic gyrations of my pen - and blame my "tired feeling" and not my good intentions for my delinquencies.

Has Claude found employment yet? How's my little pug getting along? I hope he will not become thin. Isn't he a fine dog though!! How that old fellow does love me; yes, and how I do love him!

Good by,

Your loving son,

Fred.
