Dearest Clara,

Honey I received your most welcome v-mail letter written June thirteenth and sure glad to hear from you, and know that you must be alright, I know that it is awful tiresome staying up all night with Grandma, but I am just like you honey, If I were there I would be glad to do the same, I sure am glad that she is resting better. Is she at your folks, you said that you got her moved in, tell her to hurry up and get well again, I want to see her on her feet when I come back Honey, I am going to write another letter when I finish this, you will probably get this the quickest, I am okay, and as good for you as I know how to be, so you be good to me, and write me a lot of letters a day, I do my best to write everything with lots of love and kisses to my dear wife, Clara
