But some how it will be all right you will do your best fight the battle that is given to you, bravely and unfalteringly The victory won then home to loved ones Daphne your beautiful first, then the rest of us. Then you can establish your own dear home and I will be so glad when you have it. Every day I ask God to keep you and all those other brave soldiers from all evil. and let you come home to us and I believe he will. There is so little of news to tell you we all go on the same "jog trot" nothing happens to create the least excitement The Sentinel has nothing worth while reading. It may interest you to know C.C Pugh has announced his candidacy for Secretary State. Also about half dozen others are expected to run. I almost forgot to tell your Daphna sent us that wonderful picture of you May Dorr told me in her card that she sent her one She has it framed in gold, she wrote, hanging on her wall. Called you "our dear dear boy and so proud she is ready to "bust" as she said.  What a dear Mary she is. She also said she is going to invite Daphna to visit her this Summer after she leaves the college, Is not that fine, her mother
