Saturday Evening

Honey:

            What are you doing on such a beautiful night?  It’s lovely out, honey, it’s no use wishing.

            Honey, I received your letter that you wrote Thursday evening.  It was short, but sweet.

            How are you, honey?  I’m fine and very lonesome tonight.  In the afternoon we were rushed with work.  As soon as I got off the train I hurried to the post office for my mail.  No mail- Esta was there before me.  A letter and a card showing where you work.

            I miss you, honey.  Oh if we were together tonight.  How lovely everything would be.

            I saw Ellen this morning.  She told me that she dated a lieutenant over a week.  Honey, I believe you when you say you are true to me.  I was also true to you.  God knows what I’d do if I knew you went out [with] someone else.  Honey, you mean the world to me.  I love you, honey.

            Goodnight, honey, I’ll see you again.  May God bless you.  Take good care of yourself.  All my love and kisses go to you always.

Lovingly yours,
Rose Marie

P.S. Honey, my letter is short compared to my other ones.  I’m lonesome, dear, for practically all the girls are out, but me.  I’m going to retire.  Love and Kisses

Rose Marie

Hello, honey!  Now that the dorm is quiet, I feel a little happier.  Forgive me, honey, for being down in the dumps.  I just love you so much that it hurts.

            Goodnight, honey, and sweet dreams to you.
