Well I’ve finally set down to write you another letter. I have been going to write you for the last two or three days but just hadn’t got settled to it.
I made my assignment this morn. Of twenty dollars. I think it will start from the first of August. & you should get your first cheque the first of September. However Franc. be sure & let me know when it comes & if it the full twenty dollars are there. Also don’t forget to send in that insurance book every couple or three months & they will mark it & send it back. That is the one I told you to send to them.
“I have had a bad cold and I went to the doctor. They said I had acute Broncitis.”

Tues. nite.
Dear Frances:
Was so glad to get your letter
to-nite. I also got one from Garnet. Aunt Clara’ & John Hutzel’s G.F. Aunt
Clara sent me a box yesterday with soap, shaving cream, dental cream, candy
gum, and cand canned goods in in. I haven’t had a letter from Peggy
since Sat. And I’m really disappointed. I can’t imagine wat whats the
matter with her unless she doesn’t love me anymore. Maybe she found a new B.F
B.F.
I have had a bad cold and I went
to the doctor. They said I had acute Broncitis. But I think I’ll be all right
in a day or two I’m glad the kids got their hair done. I’ll bet they look
really nice now. After me promising it to them and then you had to do it
yourself. Well if I hadn’t went in debt for that watch. I guess I could have
fulfilled my promise
