Dear Judy,
How is my best girl today? So sorry I haven't written sooner but although I'm still in the hospital I always seem to be so busy. I know that is a poor excuse but it is the best I can give. Is it excepted I had a pass the other day and I went to Stratford and seen one of Shakespears plays. King Lear it was not so bad although I never did like Shakespear even in school. I recieved one of you letters yesterday that was address ed to this hospital so it looks like I was wise in giving you this address. Oh yes my foot is better in fact I have a hunch I'll be soon back in my company. What do you mean I don't know when to stop drinking beer. I thought I used great restraint in drinking when I was in your presence I see you went to the Brookfield zoo, why to you know that is one place I never went to and me living in Chicago. Well Judy that is all the news for now take care of yourself and think of me now and then, so long for now.
