Received your most welcome letter a
couple of days ago so I guess I had better answer before you think I can’t
write or something, Huh?
So sorry you were sick but don’t
know wether to take that as an excuse or not. I wish I had been there I’d have
soaked your neck in hot water and get a little revenge but I’ll get my revenge
yet. Wait and see. You can’t do me that way and get away with it. Sorry?
So you’ve got a ??? Ever hear Annie ???
Gosh I’m sure storing up religion listening to her but it gets knocked in the
head when I go to reading scriptures?
Don’t know what to think. Guess I’ll stay Mormon.
Serves you right driving so fast.
You should take after me and go ???
miles an hour. That’s plenty fast for any lady!
The hand is ok and I’m knocking them
for a row in the work outs with sixteen ounce gloves but don’t know how it will
hold up with six rounds. Hears hoping it looks as I’m due to get the best out
of me if it don’t on the twenty Sixth of this mo.
Saggio must have sent some of that
bread away. They shouldn’t have sold it in Preston .
ha ha.
Well. I’ll close and hope to
hear from you soon.
Joe
