Dear Ben and All:
I suppose you are wondering about me, well I am here thinking about your Birthday. “its today,”
First of all I want to tel you “Be” damn sure not to write to me here. We are at New Jersey. And if you tell any one be sure and tell them not to write here . If you want to write write to my old address in Texas. I will get it. I am in New York on a three day pass, just got here, four of us are staying at this hotel.
If I can fine Uncle Ben I will go there Tomorrow.
Boy! O Boy I spend New Year Eve in New York “Time Square.” I’ll never forget it. Til you more when I see you. Now you know where I am so keep it under your hat or it will be too bad for me. You can write to Texas, but I won’t be writing much very often, can’t say any thing any how. Felix.
P.S. I was on the train Christmas day got your leter, but not the Box. We went throu upper Sandusky Ohio about 20 miles from Toledo. Was in Upper Sandusky 3:30 Sat night day after xmas I felt like getting off and spending Sat night home. ha. Boy O Boy “Phil,” and New York are big.
