Two pages of a handwritten letter to "Buck," in full: "I have just received your letter of May 31 and it was mighty fine to hear from you—Several of us heard about the same time and there followed our usual daily discussion about how we like to travel—Did you get my other letters? Sid, Hal & I have been eating lunch together for the past several days. If we get away from the main subject of conversation for a moment or so, we always get right back on it very quickly—Here’s hoping. We got Danny’s address from Mrs. Wilson today and we are sending…Hope all is well with you—When matter we wish for is is handled be sure let us know ahead of time so all proper arrangements can be made—need advance dope, When you write me give some idea—all miss you and hope see you soon. Rosanne and little boy join me in sending you the best wishes in the world.” In fine condition, with a rusty paperclip impression to the top edge.
