I just\nhad two teeth filled. I am glad of that now I&#8217;ll be like new when I leave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its pretty dead in here now and then we have a little fun\nkidding the nurses. I had a bad cold and a fever of 103\u00ba when I come in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So your middle name is Helen at first I thought it was but\nthe more I keep thinking the more I though Helen was Cora&#8217;s middle name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So I didn&#8217;t give them any middle name for you on that\ninsurance business. And Helen for Cora. Ha. I sure got that screwed up. Eh. Ha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What are you doing today? I suppose you are going to church\nits only about 6:30 back there come to think of it so you are probably still in\nbed. Do you ever see Sammy B in church?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its raining out almost all week. I was sorta glad to be in\nhere out of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Say by the way almost every letter you send you forget to put 803 be sure you put the whole address I usually get them but it takes longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I got a carton of cigarettes from Monroe Members of the foreign war or some thing like that. I sold it for two shillings ha!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well I don&#8217;t know of a damn thing more to write about! Now that I write this I suppose I&#8217;ll get a letter from you right after I send this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A million questions to answer.
