Transcription
about Billy Dodge coming here on the excuse of "Collect for the Star" long before it was time, and telling of his proposed trip to Boston in high joy, and how he assented to looking you up with evident pleasure, and the possibility of Eric coming. Dolores said Pat Grainger was off on all these trips too, the only girl. She was in the boat Billy pulled last time, he told me. Maybe she would visit you too! Dad and I have been cleaning the cellar. Had to make up a fire in the furnace again this morning. He worked at the Library as usual till 3 o'clock. Julia is due back before Xmas we hear. Grandma wrote that maybe you would be out this weekend. I hope you can get out once a month to see how she is. Love, Mother.
