Conger Reynolds correspondence, 1917

1917-12-27 Mrs. Marye Goodenough to Conger & Daphne Reynolds Page 5

for the sacrifice. The unions of hearts and souls is a wonderful thing and I cant help but feel that your marriage was solemnized in heaven, and shall look forward with the truest joy to the time when my two children shall build this nest and be parted never more. and then perhaps some dear little budlings will come to gladden the springtime of their love. and draw the golden mystical chain closer about them.  I am so happy to know that you two have this wee bit of heaven before being parted. if Conger has to go, God grant he may not be sent to France.  I met "sister" as I came in tonight and she asked when you'd be home I answered casually in time for school.  She didn't ask where Id been only said did you have a good time?  This room is full of mice I shall be afraid to go to bed for fear they will eat me up.  Now lissun Baby, dont you come home on that 5 oclock train that I left on. the conductor said that train had not been less than 3 hours late since in Nov. and sometimes 5 we were five hours late.  Leave W - on a morning train then if you miss the day
