Dearest
Darling Wife,
Well honey I sure received a sweet letter today. Guess who it was from. Yes you
do know too. It was from you darling. Gosh honey I love you so darn much and
you know I always will. Gosh Honey I just can’t hardly wait until you get here.
I sure hope I get off for the weekend. I will be tickled pink just to see you
though, Honey. Darling we have waited for this for a long time. We are going to
take advantage of everything we can now darling. I have this room in the Baker
Hotel reserved for us now darling. It is really a swell hotel now darling and
we are going to stay there at least one nite. Then we
will try and get my little wife settled in an apartment for the time she is
here. We are sure going to try and get married Saturday nite
but if we don’t honey we are going to be together just
like we were and we will sure be married before you leave here. Now darling I
don’t know exactly when you will get in but if you are not waiting in front of
the hotel I will go on in and receive the room for us and will then wait for
you in front of the hotel. Of course I’m in the army now and I might be on some
kind of duty. In case I’m not there darling, don’t feel bad about it because if
I should happen to pull guard duty I would be on duty for 24 hours and couldn’t
leave for that time and wouldn’t be able to see you until Sunday evening. There
hasn’t anyone ever got guard duty yet, but you never know when they are going
to put some of us on. Now this is a very slim probability darling, but I’m just
telling you in case darling. I sure hope you get in early. You can’t miss the hotel
darling because it is a big one, anyone knows where it is. You just go in under
Mrs. Thomas Carr. I am pretty sure I can meet you Saturday nite
alright Honey and I’ll be there about 7 or 7:30 in front of the hotel. In case
you send a telegram from Fort Worth Honey, don’t send it after 6 o’clock
because I might get away by that time, but anytime before that darling is all
right. I might be out on the field and wouldn’t be able to return the telegram,
but I will get it as soon as I get in and will know when to expect you.
Anything you decide on now darling. I am sure going to try and call you
tomorrow nite now, so I might talk to you before you
get this darling. I sure hope I get to talk to you, but I’m in the army now and
you can’t expect anything. Anyway darling don’t let
anyone say you might not see me, because I will see you and several times too,
I hope every nite. Gosh Honey I just can’t hardly wait
until I see my baby but boy its not far away now.
Not much news honey only I sure do love my baby so much and I’m going to be her
husband in a few days. Gosh darling I love you so darn much and I know you love
me too darling. Darling you are the sweetest girl in this whole world and I
know from six years experience. Honey I really mean everything I’ve ever told
you or ever written to you in six years. I truly love you Honey and I always
will. I have always been true to you Honey and I’ll always be that way. I know
you always have and I know you always will darling. Gosh Honey you are perfect
in all ways and I really mean perfect and I know too.
Well darling all I want is my baby and to be back with her and all our folks
just like we used to be. We are really going to make things all right now
darling, because we can be together now Honey and that is really what we want.
Well Honey I guess I’ll have to close now darling and I’ll be seeing you
Saturday nite Honey and be looking for your sweet
letters for three more days.
Loads and loads of love to the sweetest baby in all the
world.
I love you so darn much Honey and you know I always will.
Tell everyone Hello.
Love and more love is all I can say to the sweetest wife in the whole world.
Here’s a kiss to the sweetest girl in all the world X X X X
The next one will be in person Honey.
