Darling
Just arrived here 7 am by my watch but 8 by Binghamton time. Glad to get your good letter. Will make big effort to get home for Louise’s birthday night. [Friday]
Love, Jack

Quite cold but pleasant. What has become of you? Uncle Vic thinks you ought to come down here for the summer. Of course the others would have to come.
Best Wishes from V. and L.
