My Darling:
Here I am Wednesday morning way out in a little town in Penn. Will start for Wellsville as soon as possible this morning. The hotel is closed so I am at a private boarding house with fine accommodations. It is 6:45 am and a lady has just told me breakfast is ready. I am anxious to get started and will not mail this until I get to Wellsville as they have only one train a day out of here.
I had a good day yesterday, 6 orders for $324. It surprised me. All new business except one bank order for $79.
It will be quite a long drive home and how I wish you were with me.
Love unmeasured,
John

If you're new to this project, please consider going to our site and catching up with a few letters from the 1900-1910 era. The letters only take 3-5 minutes to read and you'll find the characters more fully develop if you read the letters chronologically.
John has excellent handwriting. However, in some instances, I cant decipher it. If I can't, I simply mark the spot with "xxx"s to signify thank the word isn't decipherable.
