817-19 St. S.E. Cedar Rapids, Iowa September 18, 1942 Dearest, The red splatters on the envelope and paper are wax from the candle I was using for light as I started to get going on this letter. The lights were off more than twenty minutes so I decided to get ready to go on the letter at least. Now the lights are on again. It has been quite a shower now, but I did not notice any special lightning bolt, but something must have jinxed the light equipment. Betty wrote she was driving from Winterset after work today and would be looking me up when she arrived. "If I wasn't out gadding" she said. I have been here all evening but I do not think she'll be in before
