My Best girl,
Well how are you to night [sic]? I just got back from the chapel and I have a letter from the chaplain stating that I’ve received the necessary instruction but I still have to find that form. I got to go and see him to-morrow and see if it has arrived yet. Darling I love you and it seem[s] I can’t wait until [S]unday
[Page 2]
to see you either but I guess I’ll have to. Darling about meeting me at the bus [S]unday I won’t be in wocester [?] until [S]unday night so it won’t be very early when I get to town but I’ll call if I can get it through before the bus leaves worcester. Gee darling I get more in love with you every day pretty soon maybe I’ll go crazy if I don’t see you. (Nice English isn’t it) Gee darling so many things to do when
[Page 3]
I get home I won’t know where to start, but the first thing I want it is to see you. You see I haven’t seen you since Jan 8° [?] and that’s a long time. I love you darling and I must say goodnight for now but I’ll always love you and I hope I dream of you to-night [sic]. As Ever
Howard
