Dear May.
I guess you think, by the lecture we gave each other last night, that I wont come up any more to see you again, but as I have always told you that when I think of discontinuing my friendship I will tell you. I hope that you took what

And it seems to me that I dont mean no more now to you than the night I first met you. May dont be hard hearted think of some one else beside your self

show if you only knew what I was thinking about. Must all these days and months that we have been going to gether mean nothing? Stop and ask your self if you think that you are doing me justic. It is not that I cant get another girl to love and be loved. And not that you cant get some one else but, it is strong lines of love that exist between you and I. If my tooth dont hurt when I have it pulled Sunday I'll be up there to see you Sunday evening Excuse Writing as I am sleepy.
I remain yours,
