February 1, 1942
Dear Laura:
Just a short letter before I retire tonight or I won't get a line off to you this week either.  Have planned especially to write you ever since Christmas, but ---
Suppose you know I was home then, as were Ida and Sue.  My time was very short, but I didn't want to let the winter get underway without going home.  Your box came while I was there.  Many thanks for the pin.  It was very pretty, but didn't fit in with anything I had, so I gave it to Sue.  She dais that she could make good use of it.  I had a good visit with Ida, and was glad to see her again because it isn't often she is hoe when I am.  I see Sue much more frequently.  Haven't heard from Mother since I was there, and I hope she is keeping well.  I thought she was quite well then, but she complained because we girls were doing all the work!!  Of course if she is able she should keep doing something, I know that.

Saving...
