Dear Billy,

            Yesterday was my birthday I did expect to get a letter from you it would have made me very happy but none came, I have not received any more from you since the letter of Oct. 3.

            I wish to thank you very much for your birthday gift Helen said you told her to buy me something she bought 3 pks of stockings which will come in very handy I really needed them.

            Harold remembered my birthday and sent me a card and she phoned from Boston last night which made mw very happy.

            Harold told me he is coming home for the weekend, it will be just one of those hurried trips gets in late Sat. night and he will have to leave on the 6 o’ clock train on Sunday so he has very little time.

                                                            Love,

                                                                        Your Mommy
