My dearest
George,
I sure was
glad to receive your letter. I have read it over & over, but still I’m not
through with it. It was just like hearing your sweet voice again and only I
know how happy it made me.
It’s Sunday
night and dreadfully lonesome for me, just wishing you were here to cheer me
up. About your vacation, will you come to Salt Lake? I’m hoping and praying so.
If you should, let me know about when and I’ll take mine at the same time. I
still have one coming. Try not to disappoint me, though I know you’ll do your
best.
We had quite
a rain storm here the other day. Several of the highways had to be closed because
of the mud & rocks. It’s been so teribly hot; but to have it cooled down is
worth the mud and so on.
Give me a
hand—I need a little help. The mosquitoes got the best of me out on the lawn
and I feel like I need a lot of scratching.
There is
going to be a wedding in the family before long. Otto Hunger gave Martha a ring
so I guess we’ll have a new uncle. Uncle Otto—not so bad.
George dear
I too think our time will come. Certainly my promise to be your wife still
goes. I mean it more than ever now. My folks have no objections whatever.
Mother always did like you and you’re the son-in-law for her. Dad and mother
both know what I’m waiting for—you. I
let mother read you last letter. That shows how much I thought of it. I wanted
someone to share my joys and who here could do so more than mother. This was
the first one she read, but we speak about you and so it was not sudden to her.
I’m starting
to save so I can come and live with you whenever you want me. Being alone
living in your thoughts is too lonesome to stick out very much longer. I want
my George, if he’s mine and I’m his, why can’t I have him? How’s work down
there for girls? I’m willing to work and help get a start when I come down
there.
Oh how I
wish you were here so I could talk with you dear. I sure miss you. There’s lots
of things I want to tell you but with a pen and paper they’re not so
successful, but I love you, love you more than any one or any thing on earth
and I want you to know it. You needn’t think I’m going out, having a good time
and forgetting you accept when I owe you a letter or at night; but when I’m out
I just think how wonderful it would be if you were by my side, enjoying it all
with me, and just hoping, planning and longing for the day we shall meet again
and enjoy life together.
Answer my
letter soon, if not sooner dear, for receiving one is the brightest ray of
sunshine and happiness I can have from you at this time.
Here’s from
the one who has always love you and always will till life’s end and then I
still will, and here’s a nice long kiss
from Alice
