Dearest Mary,
I finally got some mail today, a letter from the Methodist Preacher. I had hoped of hearing from
you but soon as I saw the large envelope, I knew it wasn’t from you. This is the fifth day - and still no
mail, it must be delayed somewhere. The letter I got today was postmarked Jan 5.
We had a pretty good supper tonight; beef, brown gravy, boiled cabbage, green beans, cake,
dessert, and tea. I’ve had a good appetite for several months and have been eating everything in my
mess kit. I think I have gained a little more weight. How have you been feeling? Darling please take care
of yourself.
I can’t think of much to write about honey, I’ll do better soon as I get some mail.
I love you with all my heart, Mary.
Yours forever,
Earl
