Hi Honey
I got word that went to the ball before I got your letter and I was mad when I heard that you went without telling me but I can’t blame you for going. I wish I could of [sic] gone but that’s was out of the question. Darling I still love you. How could I
[Page 2]
stop? Gee I feel lonely to-night [sic]. I still got [sic] a cold I guess. I’ll always be sick. Its [sic] the changeable weather down here. I guess I just can’t take it. Well how’s everything at home? I haven’t heard anything for a long time. I got a letter from Evelyn but I haven’t felt good enough to answer it. I haven’t had much time.
[Page 3]
I got a letter to-night [sic] from N. Proulx and from his letters I don’t think he likes it any too good down in Texas. I guess he’s still in love with Vi. B I’m not mad at you anymore [D]arling about the dance. If you hadn’t written me that you went and told me about it I would of [sic] been mad because somebody
[Page 4]
wrote me a letter and told me that you went and even told me who you went with and what time you went home. I felt kind of bad for about a day intil [sic] I got your letter. [Y]ou don’t blame me do you? Well [D]arling all is forgiven and I still love you and I always will. Lots of love
Howard
