Dearest Mary,

I have had no mail for three days. I did get the Xmas cards Jan 2. Though. They were from Mrs. Herbert Wise,

Mr. & Mrs. Willard Perry and Bob and Vi. I have enough letters to write to keep me busy for several days. I’m writing this

before the mail comes in because I don’t always have light to write by at night, our mail usually come at that time. I

hope one of my Xmas packages comes in soon. They will surely get here sometime this month. Several of the boys have

not received their Xmas packages yet.

One of the boys in my tent purchased a big white duck somewhere this morning so we are going to cook him

some time to-day. He tied to our tent with a small cord and seems to be very content to sit there and look around; little

does he know what’s going to happen! Bye darling.

I love you very much, Mary.

Yours

Earl
