Transcription of Letter

Dec 1924

My Dear May.

I am well and truly hope that you are the same I received your letter or rather note a few days ago. Sorry to say but it was impossible for me to come to the church last Friday as I am now attending Newark Prep School.

Can you go to Long Branch

(page 2)

monday Dec 8, 1924. The bus leave at 7 oclock at Washington Street, wish you could go. If you havent any particular place to go Sunday why not come down to Elizabeth and we can go to Show, But if you cant come I may see you Sunday that is if you havent an engagement out of town.

Yours,
Wm
