Conger Reynolds correspondence, September 1918

1918-09-19 Conger Reynolds to Daphne Reynolds Page 8

to August 24 and telling me heaps of interesting things, I don't know when I'll get said everything that has popped into my head while reading them. I'll begin now.
First, I want to assure you that you must never hesitate to cable me if you are anxious. Betcha if I had been obliged to wait 'slong as you did for letters I should have called. I spuz in years to come you'll get so "fed up" on having a hubby that you'll never bother yourself about not hearing from me if I'm away awhile. Now you're a bride and entitled to the privilege of being eager for letters, and I love you for being that way and hope you'll not think I'd not like your cabling because I would. Your anxiety was an expression rather trying to you of your depth of affection that I know and respect. I'm hoping you'll not have another such trial And I shall make sure you don't be cabling occasionally.
It has been interesting to read in succession your letters telling how "skeered" you were of meeting the family and then those showing how swiftly you lost the "skeer" after you saw them. They are regular human beings, aren't they?
