Dear Mother,
This will have to be short and sweet because we are very busy with and have some censoring to do.
There was mail this morn. but I didn’t get much due to the fact that most of it was old. I did get one from you date Feb 19 and you asked in that for suggestions on the lawn and I did do that some time
[page 2] ago. Hope you have all the particulars.
The other letter was from Ruth M. but it was also old although all of that mail is still appreciated.
You will certainly have to excuse this but I wat want you to get the usual daily letter
So solong
Love Daddy

It’s so nice that they wanted to keep to the daily writing schedule. I still get a chuckle out of the lawn code for disclosing his location.
