Dearest Rayson:
How are you this fine morning? We are both very well and happy. This is the kind of weather that makes life worth living and with you dear one it will be perfect.
Yesterday Aunt Vic, Mother and I went to the County Fair. It was very nice this year. They are having a baby contest, you should see all the babies, dear. They are all so nice but get frightened at the doctors and are all crying at once.
We had a letter from Vera yesterday morning. They are all quite well as usual.
When you write to Billy, dear, address the mail to - 223-225 East Ann St. c/o Nat'l Fireproof Warehouse Co. It seems that the Loftus Land Office is closed most of the time and so they are having the mail sent to Billy and so get it that much sooner.
Aunt Vic says that you must come and stay all night the 23rd, just the same you do now. You won't mind staying there just one night will you dear? Anyway I suppose we will set up most of the time that night. It was awfully good of her to offer anyway.
The junk man came this morning and besides the junk he also bought the writing desk for himself.
Well dearest I thought I would write a few lines to explain about the address in case you hadn't written.
Mother sends her love dear but I have to send mine separatly for it is so much bigger and stronger, I just couldn't think of putting it all in one. Will close for now, with all my love, I am,
Your only
Edythe.
