Mary Dearest,
I didn’t get any mail today. I should get some tomorrow; it’s been three days since I heard from
you. I wrote Ray & Anita a letter last night thanking them for the Xmas box. We had some postum last
night and it was pretty good. One of the boys in my tent bought two dozen fresh eggs from the natives
so we had another supper. How much is eggs back home? We paid seven rupees for two dozen, that’s
about $2.10 U.S. money. That’s the first fresh eggs I’ve had since I’ve been overseas. I hope that we can
get some more sometime.
Tomorrow is our wedding anniversary. Time has passed pretty fast, don’t seem like it’s been
four years. I’m going to send you something. It will be several weeks late but I know you will understand.
I only hope that I will be home by this time next year, darling.
I love you very much, Mary.
Yours forever,
Earl
