Dear Doris - Well how is my little girl today? I am just fine. We didn't work this afternoon it has been raining here about all day but is clear now. We sure had a swell feed today. Going to an old time dance tonight but I would jas as leave stay home as I don't think we will have much fun. I am looking for a letter from a girl I love tomorrow and hope I am not disapointed. We will
get through here this week so send my letters to Skidmore Mo. and I hope there will be one waiting for me when I get there. I kinda hate to leave this place as these folks are sure nice. There's a boy here the same age as my self and he is in the same condition that I was a year ago only he can't use either of his legs. I have been helping cary him from one room to another and lots of little things like that. He and I have
got to be real pals. He is taking electric treatments and he says they are helping a lot. So I think I will try it when I get enough money, "If I ever do." Has your gum drop been down to see you lately? And how are you and Oscar getting along. Well I must close as supper is ready. Be a good little girl and write to me every day.
With lots of love
Ted
I would expect the writing paper to be not so fancy but I guess these letters were "extra special" to Ted... with a matching envelope to boot. Go Ted!
