Dearest

To night I am very tired and sleepy only if you was near me to hold me in your arms so that I could sleep and recive your sweet kisses I enjoyed being with you the other night and really & truly the more I see you the more I care for you you are the dearest woman in the world to me. and over, and over again I could whisper in your ear I love you and only you.

Your are my ideal. I cant bear to hear you day that I dont love you, you

have caused me to, and I know when the things we plan will come then we will alway be happy always. Oh, how I hated to leave you Wednesday night because you were so sweet to me.

We have been very dear to each other and I hope that we will continue our love as we have lately. I havent no particular place, to go Sunday afternoon and Ill be up there between 4,30 & 5 out on Spooner Ave but I am not promising you that I am going to Church. But any way I'll be up there if you havent any place to go, but if you have some place to go send me a telegram C.O.D.

Be sweet Dear

Yours alway
Bill.
