My Dearest Maggie:

                Well I had a very thrilling day today. I stayed in bed until 12:00, and it sure felt good to sleep as long as I wanted. Played ping-pong for awhile this afternoon, wrote a letter to mother then I went to the show, and here I am back again, writing to you.

                Your letter of Friday came already today, it came when I was still in bed.

                So you went over to Marie. I am sure surprised at you. I didn’t think you would ever kiss anyone’s a--, but I don’t care honey, I guess you know what you want.

 It was good to hear that the baby finally has teeth. Did he really get two at one time? He probably feels a little better now.

                Did you like the show, honey? That is about the only entertainment you can get around there. It would be awfully lonesome for me in a town like that. By the way honey, what are you going to do about a picture of the baby. Are you going to have one taken, or wait or if you take one will you be on it? Tell me some of these things.

                These nights we are having one so beautiful. I get so lonesome for you, I almost think you have to be with me. I am so much in love with you M’Gee. What am I going to do when I will have to go away. Why must there be a thing like war? If it wouldn’t be for a few men I wouldn’t be here now, I do love you though. 

I still seem to love you more and more every day.

I am too lonesome for you tonight to write dear.

                All my love,

                                Pres.
