My Darling

This is your birthday. My cards have been sent and no flowers have gone to carry my love, but here

goes for a big axxx and heart of love for each. I spent yesterday forenoon in Avon and sold two orders for 76.00 and $172. After two hired a car and drove to Honoye Falls to tune of $4.00 plxnks. I got two orders there for $28.46, $238.45 and $43.00. I worked until about half past nine and then went into the fine new Masonic Temple and watched two teams in a bowling match. Their temple is fine.

I am now on my way to Mt. Morris and it looks as though I’ll stay in Perry for Sunday. My connecting train is coming and I’ll have to stop.

Love unbounded for each dear one. I am very thankful for your precious life and the dear ones God has given to us. May the coming years be full of joy and happiness and helpfulness is my earnest hope and prayer.

Your loving

John

P.S. Excuse pencil please. Ink is all out of pen, and by time I get to Mt. Morris and get breakfast it will be past time for work.
