7.30 P.M.Dearest darling Jeannette:-
Just a line to let you know we are well and happy. Sort of looked for a letter from you to-day, but undoubtedly you're very busy.
Jane came up Tues. afternoon, and stayed until this afternoon, taking Billy home with her. She stayed all night with me, both nights and I was over there for supper. I don't like the atmosphere over there. Grace and I played bridge and had some fun.
Cecile was in to-day with her sister from Toledo. Grover was buried Tues. P.M. and to-day at 3 P.M. she & his wife and daughter, left Bing for good. Had sold furniture, packed and moved. Hows that? A wk. ago to-morrow she was in the shoppe and took out two books.
Mrs Kallgren was in to-day, and said "I hate to ask you for that book but I would like to read L.C.L." [Lady Chatterley's Lover] It was in, so I did it up carefully and she went merrily on her way. So you see, they all are the same. Curiosity! I don't blame them, but strange as it may seem, I have'nt read it. Read "The Secret Image" by Oliver the other night and I liked it very much.
Your letter to Mr. Gecks was very nice, but I wanted to read the part you left out. 'oo big mean to me, [musical notes above the words] why are you so mean to me?
It won't be long now! Can hardly wait for vacation. We will have some shopping to do, and the time will pass so quickly. O! dear! Don't you really want to go to New York? I think I would be tempted to. You know me!
Must close dearie, and have your father mail this.
Oodles of love and billions of kisses
"Muddikins".
