Text

Dearest,

I have had a hard day and I am weary to-night, and so sleepy that I can scarcely keep my eyes open; but this is just a line to tell you, dear, my thoughts have been with you nearly all day and I am going to sleep happy to-night because you love me—and what is more, you are the finest person in all the world and I love you with all my heart.

I miss you terribly and shall be happier when I can be with you again—The enclosed article is the one you spoke of sending to Miss Gray.

I shall think of you to-morrow constantly. May God bless you, my precious darling—and help me to be good enough for you—

Goodnight.

Cary
