Letter 19171217
Dear Frank
We received your letter and the box. I was sure you was coming home when the box came. So I felt a little disappointed. I do hope this war will soon be over so all you kiddies can come home My but you are such a little boy now aren't you. I am glad you are getting well and alright. Say are all those clothes yours that you sent home. I thought they was and your pa thought they was not. The kids are nearly wild about them.
Good by and a Merry Christmas to you
Note: This care was not dated but is believed to be from 1917.
