Dear Yve,
Well how are you to-night [sic] ? I miss you so darn much that it [sic] terrible. I wish I could see you to night [sic]. I got a letter to day [sic] that you wrote thanksgiving [sic] and you ought to be spanked for giving lessons on a holiday and if I was there I’d of given it to you. Honest darling I don’t want you to work all the time. I love you so very much that I feel funny if you work hard and I don’t. Darling I’m going over to the hospital tomorrow and see Ray if I get time so if I write late it because I’ve been there [sic].

Well darling I or should I say we finished the brownies to-day [sic] and I’m telling you they were extra good and everybody said the same. Well it [sic] getting late so I guess I’ll go to bed now. I love you and always will. Your loving husband
