Dear Frank,

                        Enclosed you will find the two dollars which you sent me before you left Berlin. I received the letter with the money in it some two or three days since. would have sent it before but I did not know when you were to leave Oshkosh, but Mr Baldwin said that you promised to write to him as soon as you got orders to go, consequently I thought you would receive this before you left Oshkosh. I did not like to run the risk / of sending the money afterward the letter must have been delayed so we must not blame the clerk in the post office any more.

 

            Well Frank how are you getting along I want to see you so very much but it is getting late & I must close for it is nearly church time you will excuse this miserably written letter will you not. my pen is so very poor I can hardly write at all & I am not at home. now dear Frank write as soon as you receive this so that I will know that you it reached you safely. write often to your own affectionate
