Dear Sis & Family,
A few lines to let you know that I am still getting (along) fine and hope that you are all well. I have been very busy lately and have not had the chance, or place to do any writing. I haven’t had any mail for a long time now but am waiting patiently for I know that I will be getting some one of these days. I have been with Jim Bedell the last few days and he is getting along fine now and looking well. He is driving truck at present.
I believe tomorrow is Olive’s birthday, so wish her Many Happy Returns for me and tell her not to get married before I get back, as I want to be best man at her wedding. Have you seen much of Dad lately and how is he getting along? I hope that Bill is still with him yet. I haven’t seen J.C. only the once, but wrote to him a week or so ago, so am hoping to hear from him soon.
Well, I would like to be with you for Christmas but am afraid I would be a little late if I started for home now. I have sincere faith that before another year goes by that we will be together again. Well, I must close for now.
Hoping to hear from you soon. Say hello to everyone for me.
Cheerio for now.
Love, Allan
