Sunday Night,

My dearest Hal,

            I hope you had a pleasant [day] with Wilbur and Elizabeth.  I’m sure you enjoyed it very much.  I missed you very much but I guess I can’t have everything.  If only spring would come and I could be terribly busy.  There are a great many things I could be doing but somehow none of them interest me in the least.

            On the 22nd the Auxiliary is serving that big banquet to the stockholders of the Bank.  The [banquet] will have 100 people and get about $1.75 a plate so I guess we’ll do alright.  What I dread most is the work.  You have no idea what a lot of work one of these affairs can be.  Everyone is just about dead when they’re finally over.  I really believe I dread that mountain of dishes more than anything else.

            I’m sorry the problem of finding us a place to stay is proving so difficult.  Betty thinks Sam will endanger his promotion by changing schools.  He is doing well in everything but reading.  He is behind in that and I have been coaching him every night.

            Mother and Peggy feel that I should come down there and stay with you and leave Sam here until school is out.  I do appreciate their willingness to take on my job but in about a month there will be so much to do, they will never get through.

            In case you would like me to come down and stay a little while I could get a room with Mac’s aunt (Mrs. T) who runs the boarding house.  I should love to see you get your medal.  I wish I could just forget all my responsibilities and do what I really want to do.  I’d be down tomorrow on the first train.  I can’t think of anything except how much I want to see you.

            Do you think you would like to live in the house with Mac and Paul and Mary B?  I think maybe something might be arranged there.  Mac wrote and asked if we were interested.  I am certainly interested in seeing you, very much so.

            Do you think you will be home this week end?  If you come, don’t forget to call the Finance office and ask Zack M to come along.

            When you have a night off you might go over to Chester and see Paul.  You will find him at Mrs. Ella T’s or Mrs. Phil T’s Boarding House.  She has a phone so may be you could call him up.  It might lead to a place to live.

            Darling, I miss you terribly every minute you are away from me.

                                                                        All my love,
