Dear Helen:
I got your letter the other day and the paper and was glad to get both. The candy has not got here yet, although I got a box from Laura yesterday and was it good. We are having some awful weather here and the mud is something fierce. I went to the show last night – Blondie in Society and Two in a Taxi. I was out on my first route march yesterday since I came out of the hospital and I am stiff today.
What is Dresden going to do with the town hall gone? I don’t suppose they will be able to scrape up enough money to build another one, will they?
Thanks ever so much for offering to send cigarettes but I had lots in the hospital and can get lots now. How is all the rest of the family now and have you seen much of Dad lately? I just got through writing to him. Well, I can’t think of any more right now so will close for this time. Write soon.
Love, Allan
