Mary Darling,
I didn’t get any mail from you to-day, not much mail has come in the last few days. I got a letter
from Bob today. It was postmarked Jan 2., that’s the latest letter I have received up to date. He sent me
a clipping out of the D.R. Clan, of Harry Blake and his wife. The picture was good, I think it was taken at
the Remy. He also told me that Russ Hooper is at Camp Sibert, Aba. I don’t know why he don’t write, I
wrote to him a long time ago.
I just happened to think about how long I’ve been in the army, it was two years Jan 14. I think
that’s one date I will never forget. I hope I’m home by this time next year.
I love you darling, and miss you more each day.

Your husband,
Earl
I’ll surprise you this time - the money order.
