    Dear Franc:-

    I have received two letters from you & two from Onn. also her cigs & I’m sure enjoying them.

    One of yours was written Sept 11 which I received first & one Sept. 5 I got it the following day. I’m glad Elt. dropped a line too. Tell him to do it as often as he can.

    Dear La Verne:-

    Well how are you getting along now? The last letter I got from Franc. She said you were’nt well. Of course you could easily be well again by now as it takes nearly three weeks, for mail to come across the ocean.
