My Darling,
I am here for the night and most of forenoon, so I may catch a letter here from you. It has been a pleasant day to drive, but guess I’ve not driven more than 20 to 25 miles today. Have three small orders for $52, $28 and $40. Expect to work Poland, Newport, Middleville and finish out day in Herkimer. Would like to hear from you at Broad Albin and Amsterdam, N.Y. Hotel Warner.
You spoke of riding to Utica with me yesterday. Wouldn’t it be nice for you to come up Saturday and ride home with me. Can’t tell exactly where I would get in Utica, but probably in time for lunch with you. You might be at Hotel Madison about noon to to one o’clock. If I am not there leave a note with clerk telling me when you’ll be at hotel. Do as you think best about coming, but if you need to come to Utica, that would be a good day.
Love unbounded,
Jack
Editor's notes
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.
