Helen Angell Fox letters to Bess Peebles Fox, January-May 1944

1944-02-10 Helen Fox to Bess Peebles Fox Page 3

[Feb 10, 1943]
P.P.S. Lucy Powers is clearing tomorrow, too. Also a couple of Juliette's friends. Juliette is going to send you some pictures. She is the tall dark girl & Lucy the older, lighthaired woman.
[Feb. 10, 1944]
Wednesday night
Dear Mother,
Just a note. I'm just about packed, so even if they should send me out tomorrow it would be all right. Probably it will be a day or so.
I visited with Don by phone a few minutes ago & he said he thought I'd be going to the unit there and that all was unchanged. He was quite puzzled that I hadn't been sent before, but said he had long since given up trying to figure out the Red Cross.
I'm scribbling this on my bed before I finish up odds & ends. I just wrote Betty a note. I still have a few I wanted to write but will have to postpone.
I can see I'll have to send home some things I wanted to take. Inevitable, I suppose.
Love,
Helen
P.S. Cookies were swell.

Saving...
