My Dearest Nursie:
I received
your nice letter before I left
hoemt his morning, and now
while I have nothing to do will
write to you. I wont have time
to write much for I have a
lot of business to attend to
tonight and it is night now.
Nursie since I wrote to you
about coming out there next
Sunday - 2nd Sunday - I hear
there is to be a big associa-
tion at River Sink and no
doubt you will go to it.
Now I dont care to keep you
from going there and as you
know I dont care much for

going to church, so I expect
that I had best not come
there. Of course sweatheart
I want to be with you - and
dont see how I can wait any
longer -, but I wouldnt keep
you away from the meeting
for anything, for I am sure
you would enjoy it - I know
you wouldn't miss me no-
way. Let me know if you
are going to River Sink and
if you and Susie dont go, Major
and I will come out there
Sunday afternoon. Now dar-
ling dont you stay on account
of me coming for I wouldnt
[page 3]
want you to do that. Major
is back at home with me
now and I am not quite so
lonesome. I expect I will go back
home tomorrow, but am not
sure as I have quite a lot
to do here. The people made so
much noise in the hotel until I
cant write. Excuse such
writing, I have lot to tell you
when I see you, but havent
time to write it now. Good
night love, pleasant dreams.
Ever Your
John H. A.
