344 Commonwealth Ave., Boston.
Feb. 5, 1930.

Dear Folks,

It is about time for dinner, but I think that I shall have time to at least acknowledge receipt of the tinfoil before I am called. I don't really see how you got it here so quickly. I mailed my letter about six at night and that was here the second morning afterward, I think. I really didn't notice whether or not the address was 334, but I don't believe it was, for I got it so quickly. Mrs. Ott gave me the money to pay the postage; but when I got your letter, I gave it back to her. Thank you very much. 
Lanson was pleased. He now has about 10 pounds or more, and we hope that his father will soon get around to taking him down with it. Mrs. Ott wants Lanson to write to you his own thanks, but I thought that you might be a little anxious about my getting it as long as you were doubtful about the address you used.

To-day the sun is pouring into my room. I plan to go out this P.M., but I do hate to leave here, because it is the first time in many days it has been so cheerful. I hope now we shall have a "spell" of sunshiny weather.

I have not heard from my sister for some time, and I am rather worried, for she is not in very good condition, and could not stand any sickness
