Conger Reynolds correspondence, March 1-17, 1918

1918-03-08 Daphne Reynolds to Conger Reynolds Page 2

the conversation she told me something very funny that Captain Milam had said. You see, girls very often have an awful bump of humor and they are quick to take two meanings to a remark when possible. Then they must giggle inwardly until they can tell the joke to some kindred spirit. In the absence of Cobbie, I tell my jokes to Trix or Bub. Well, I told her about meeting Mr. Frierson - wasn't that his name? And I told her how you explained about our hasty marriage being inevitable. She surely had a good laugh over it. You don't mind, do you? And then I told her what you said when you awoke so suddenly one time. That almost finished her. I'm sorry you had to be the goat dear. By the way - those chin whiskers! Do you shave every day? But going back to the subject of jokes - there is one on you that I'm giggling at now. I didn't dare while I was with you. It wasn't at all
