Dear Friends:
Thanks once again for your thoughtfulness. Each and every time the mail brings something from Bryant I spend the remainder of the day reminiscing. While not very far from Bryant in terms of miles, other things do make it seem a long long ways off. Perhaps, in a year or so, we can all have a bang-up reunion. That would be the best way I know to start off our lives again, don’t you think so too?
Thanks again for your practical and timely gift of cigarettes.
Yours, for victory!
